I view not with my earthly eyes <br />the scented fields of paradise. <br />A self deluding fantasy <br />I see that which I want to see. <br />A panorama of delight <br /> a riverside bathed in sunlight. <br />A place of peace and harmony <br />where I can set my sprit free <br />A place where I am sure to find <br /> a solace and my peace of mind. <br />For here no evil can exist. <br />This is a place that I persist <br />in visiting when I’m distressed <br /> To let my troubled spirit rest. <br /> <br />1-Aug-07<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/self-defence/
