(600) October 16, 2011: The View From Here

Posted by D. Edgar Lamp on October 24, 2011 at 7:15 AM

THE VIEW FROM HERE


The view from here is better now

    I'm just above the clouds

I've left the old restrictive Tao

    Of urban mythic crowds


To make my way on dirt and stone

    To glide on leaves of grass

To walk the way I choose alone

    Where seldom people pass


It's here I've known my night would lead

  And here my day would end

A land of slower golden speed

    Just up around the bend.
