What is halcyon? <br />Is it a laughing, splashing <br />Country creek, <br />Surrounded by grazing fields <br />Of contented cows? <br />Is it a sunny, balmy <br />Newport Beach, <br />Patrolled by fleets <br />Of white water craft? <br />It seems a foreign word, <br />Not of this world, <br />Yet possessed at one time long ago, <br />When we felt light, <br />And airy of mind. <br />We went to those places <br />To unwind. <br />Halcyon is missing days, <br />That are <br />No <br />More.<br /><br />Sandi J Holland<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/halcyon-days-7/
