------Pacific------
looking east
at golden hills
mesmerized by the vision
serenity
holds me
breezes
gliding down
carressing contours
of each peak and valley
touch me
with subtle sensuality
joining with the sky
trees,
and spirit of the land
my soul immerses
feels the connection
freedom of clouds
restlessness of rivers
answers held for centuries
by ancient redwoods
I sing in tune to the earth
