Pleasant Places,Close your eyes, release the breeze of your mind let it blow tenderly into the care-free; picture it all Be carried away by the whispers of gentle air, whistling songs of peace to a place you wish to be, Make it flow inside you, like summer streams down the plains of summer fields in the valleys of rest! Where fawns meet life, and where life springs birth to marigolds, lilies, tulips and the majestic unknowns This is your dream, do not wake up from it; the place of no regrets, a land of no scars the absence of pain, Follow the voice inside you the beating of joy such an embrace of music, the music of your heart, Where it belongs, like the free skies, like the wind that rushes through the sky-scraping leaves of the pines The exotic seashores of the Caribbean, the conquering delight of Africa's savanna, the art majestic of Rome, the calmness of the oceans around them! It is all in the escape of imagination the chains it breaks inside you, the break that sets your life free… Free from the tongues of pavements, the murmuring of walls; the rumbling of roads and quarrels of rooms! Away from the confines of rules, the freedom of wings into the deep of cascading waterfalls into their plunge… The vista of palms, as they fly sideways on the beaches of everlasting the home of cocoa nuts, the healing power of chocolate, Take your dive into the milk and honey forget your name become the name of pleasure, leisure like you never imagined, The other side of life, the land where sense has many names, the names that you want to know, a home of no ambivalence Like the crowds of soccer games, the cheers of football super bowls and the awes of Olympic dreams! Nature's finest work is in the appreciation; the ripple of sand on river beds the eye that brings it all to life… The eye that lives within you the eye of the mind, making the most beautiful journey our human spirit, To a destination only found in pleasant places!
