Utopia
Year-long sun not too hot,
A breeze to cool bare skin
Golden sands and azure sea
The sound of a mandolin.
No need for clothes
Bodies not concealed
We are all nude
Physiques revealed
No work to do,
We're at our ease
Sport, read and rest
Just as we please
We can pair up
And have sex
All are willing
No one objects.
In this magic place
There's no need for strife
There is all we want
For the rest of our life.

In this magic place
There's no need for strife
There is all we want

THE REALITY INSIDE MY HEAD
(I Will Make It)
Perfection is but a dream
Where bliss is running stream
When time is endless
And sunshine never ends
Smiles that reached ones eyes
Laughter, a music playing nonstop
Where hands are weighed with compassion
And feet steady above the grounds
With flowers always in bloom
Fragrance embracing ones soul
Where beast are pets
And money don't exist
Houses unlocked with kitchen so warm
Food never rots and enough even for rats
Such abundance, with no hunger in sight
Much splendor, with no nations at war
How glorious it is if it wasn't just a dream
But hope resides, and maybe someday
I will make it so, inside my catatonic state
Untill life is drained, my dream will remain
The reality inside my head...

Utopian Visions
our true destination,
is written in the radiant mist
and song silently upon a silver breeze
whispered harmonies weeping graceful melodies
to the lost who cannot find.
we bathe in illusion that makes us visible
and our hunger makes us sane
Decorated by the benign
That decant our life force
Upon the mundane.
We fade
Slowly inextricably
masters of our own suffering,
Seeking nourishment from a mirage
And the days turn strange
with space and time being one in the same.
how can we dissolve the darkness?
if there is no diamond bridges
Cascading light beneath a turquoise sky
No luminous angelic flames
To illuminate the wants of man;
and to understand makes us smaller.

Sanctuary
I know that we're not royalty
but you will always be my Queen
we'll build a kingdom on a farm
where nature can be safe from harm
days start, and end without a care
we'll sip our drinks in comfy chairs
200 acres, maybe more
where we won't have to lock our doors
Two stories set down way up high
bay windows let the light inside
and we'll keep negativity at bay
in our secluded hideaway
there's nothing I would rather do
then live out all my dreams with you
somewhere we've been dreaming of
a place that's filled with dogs, and love
a garden with a greenhouse view
where we can grow a lot of food
and rooms for guests, not far away
that's big enough for 10 to stay
rooms in a circle so they flow
a skylight to let in the glow
and in the circle, we'll stay cool
relaxing in our private pool
we'll build a fountain by the spring
so all our animals can drink
we'll have a corn maze in the fall
and festivals to fund it all
and there will be so much to do,
so separate houses for our crew
and as for rules, we'll have just one
do what ye will, so it harms none
it's far away, but in my sights
a place we'll just call paradise
we'll give our love and space to roam
to animals that need a home
a library with lots of nooks
we'll fill with all our favorite books
and we'll have lots of flowers, too
and lavender fields just for you
when Christmas comes,
we'll both take pride
in lighting up the countryside
our love of lights on full display
we'll have the perfect holidays
I know it seems like just a dream
but it's much closer than it seems
open your heart and take my hand
and I can make you understand
it's far away, but in my sights
a place that I call paradise
it always has a lovely view
it's anywhere when I'm with you
but you will always be my Queen
we'll build a kingdom on a farm
where nature can be safe from harm

Utopia
A place that is somewhere between heaven and hell.
When you close your eyes you are under that spell
Because it is a place so charming. A place where you
Can get lost and never come back from. You slip into
Some new dimension and reality. A new dream world
That you have always wanted to be a part of. It will curl
All around you, keeping you safe from your shadows
And lurking demons. A place where no one truly knows
Your deep secrets. You run through fields upon fields
Of wildflowers while never worrying about the shields
Falling down all around you because you know they will
Always be there to protect you. It is a big rush and thrill
Because everything is perfect here. This is your place of
Utopia. There you will find happiness; everything you love.

There is a You in Utopia
Utopia is closer than you think
we can all be there in just a wink
and in the twinkling of an eye
as it is not in the sky or in the sea
believe me it is in what you can be.
Knock upon the doors of the heart
and gaze upon the wonders therein
as beauty heralding gates part
for Utopia is simply a place within
regardless of creed, race, religion,
sexuality, politics, age, ideals or skin.
A realm where kindness is king
flowing from its universal spring
with value on benevolence
over impudent violence
or ignorant malevolence.
Utopia is closer than you think
in a wave, smile and a wink
where a soul or dream can fly
with wings born of natural glee
from the compassion we can be.

Paradise Dreamed
I dreamed of a future society,
Where war and hunger were no more,
Where greed and avarice disappeared,
And human kindness was a true realization.
There was real value in human relations,
Amid mankind that truly understood,
What it means to be symbiotic,
With each other and with mother earth.
And it was here where we all strived,
To reach our full potential,
We were perceptive and conscious beings,
Achieving altruistic and noble goals.
We’d done away with money and corruption,
We’d recognized and realized our purpose,
We led happy and productive lives,
We were wise and kept our eyes on our young.
We read and studied our ancestors,
Built a civilization on the ruins of the old,
We mourned and learned from their mistakes,
Vowing to “never again” and corrected what’s wrong.
I dreamt of free and honorable people,
Who were respectful to each other,
Collaborating and communicating,
Like the civilized humans we were meant to be.

Visitation
Brush against me
while I am dreaming
rising from the slumber
but not so awake
that I am aware of a real world.
Pull on me with your mouth
tongue the ridges of my tip
your hair across my belly
but do not engulf me
...not yet.

Take Me Back to Utopia
I’ve been to Utopia
And I experienced bliss
I ventured to Utopia
The moment we first kissed
Please, my sweet beloved
Take me back to that place
Place a kiss once more
Upon my dying face
Take Me Back to Utopia
I’ve been to Utopia
And I experienced bliss
I ventured to Utopia
The moment we first kissed
Please, my sweet beloved
Take me back to that place
Place a kiss once more
