Solitaire
I look around me and I see
puffy clouds and eagles free
stars above and ground below
twinkle, freshly fallen snow
it glistens like the morning dew
it's been a while now since I flew
and I wish I could share this with you
but you're afraid of heights.
I run through hills and forests green
and see some things I've never seen
animals and plants, alive
with mysteries no man contrived
the rain washes me clean and I
wish this could last forever. My
one regret
is that you hate the wet.
The underground is quite profound
bats fly through without a sound
stalagmites, stalactites too
glistening with mineral dew
Walls fluoresce with eerie glowing,
subterranean rivers flowing
Beauty fills this inner globe
but you're a claustrophobe.
