A Rude Awakening

Walking down a path never been here before
How I got here I don’t know
Forest breeze blows all throughout the trees
Woods like a fortress build be almighty nature
Lilies surround me; sweet aromas fill air
Stream runs on my right, it’s sound puts me at ease
Birds chirp everywhere, singing songs of love
Happiness floats all around, embracing me with its warmth
Butterflies swirl around me as I walk on
Sun shines its heat, light reflects off the leaves
Beauty fills my eyes on the unknown path
Where does it lead, I’ll soon find out
Around a bend I see a bridge;
On it was a sight no less beautiful that I’ve ever seen
A girl at the railing, gazing into the water, watching as it flows
Long brunette hair trickles down her face
White dress to her ankles, her eyes, shooting stars
Her skin, smooth like the running creek
Smile that makes a day, mystic power draws me near
A feeling arises, tells me “She’s the one”
She turns around, rests her hand on my shoulder
With a soft kiss, she takes my hand and leads me further
In the far off distance, like a hopeless wolf’s cry
Came my mom’s voice, “You’re late for school!”
