A glorious city spired gleams up there <br />With mountain ranges, silver peaks background <br />The wayfarer much wonder-struck does stare <br /> <br />A dream appears to have come true but rare <br />A road that winds through thick forest is found <br />A glorious city spired gleams up there <br /> <br />The road is lined by silver birches fair <br />And deer so freely grazing here are found <br />The wayfarer much wonder-struck does stare <br /> <br />The smell of musk and berries fills the air <br />In trance, the traveler walks the road dumbfound <br />A glorious city spired gleams up there <br /> <br />The rain-cast skies have clouds like silverware <br />The heavenly scene is haunting holy ground <br />The wayfarer much wonder-struck does stare <br /> <br />To reach the dream-like city, all would dare <br />No wonder all who’ve seen the place are bound <br />A glorious city spired gleams up there <br />The wayfarer much wonder-struck does stare<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/villanelle-a-silver-city-of-one-s-dreams/
