Another evening
I walk the road that paves the skies
Celestial scenes caress my eyes
My fingers trace the setting sun
The song of angels has just begun
My footsteps rhyme with the solemn words
The sky is strung with rainbow birds
I shake the hands of ancient oaks
With sad, old stories and paper cloaks
Winds of worlds take me on the run
And my clothes are all undone
I smoke a pipe and drink some tea
With the peaceful monks that built the sea
I hear the language of the flowers
And beasts of old throughout the hours
The hour comes; saying goodbye to light
I stroll into the endless night
Shadows tread the depths of nights
And heroes rein throughout the day
Evening, a time in which there alights
Peace and reverence for the ways
Of night and day

Himalayas. From the Amazon Rainforest to the Sahara Desert.
Many thanks.
And how were your travels?
Thank you, I mean what I say, and I say what I mean ;)
What a lovely description!
I enjoy seeing you, the charming Ms. Stargirl, float about in your rowboat of graceful eloquence. Your verbal oars create quite a ripple in my soul. :)
