In Lucid Dreams

From out of the woods river wends
its way along banks of tall grasses,
thistles share in this beauty with
wild flowers; while weeping willows
catch their reflection in flowing cool
water.
As reverie unfolds; I close my eyes
breathing in nature's alluring fragrance,
enjoying damp green beneath my feet;
each step taken grounds spirit with
soothing calm.
Gazing down diversity this life
concealed in undergrowth resides;
sunlight rays...only occasionally
shimmering like glowing embrace
where warmth encourages energy.
But now at Autumn Equinox when
day and night are evenly matched,
trees mantled; leaves oscillate a
flexible dance; immersed in breezy
jaunt, for some a last waltz; before
they fall discovering that earthly realm;
regenerating life for new beginnings.
When peace is once more restored,
wet moss absorbs undulation of
river's whimsical ripples; where
displayed impressions seem to
separate as if not wishing the sail
of constraints, and I too will float
free in lucid dreams.

Autumn Equinox begins under
a Harvest Moon, when day and night
are equal, on Friday 23rd September 2022.

I want.....
to go there and pitch a tent for a week, lay back, chill, listen to the water, lay down in that too, roll around in fallen leaves and equinox it for 7days......
Thanks for taking me there Jenn...... (well deserved accolades)

worst is over (is it?)
You must be glad the heat is over! I am sure it will be soon forgotten and there will be something else.
All the best & Nolan
PS. Jenny have you had these "lucid dreams"? I had plenty but not anymore. I found it unpleasant for the most part.
