A Journey
Child of the earth, take me with thee,
Where the oceans roar and rivers sing,
Where winds serenade oh so sweetly,
And where whispers of the earth so great a bounty brings.
Take me on a journey with thee,
Where eagles soar and stallions run,
Kind rains wash away every sorrow,
Where rays of sunset kiss thee when the day is done.
Free from all the shadows,
Outrunning every perusing nightmare,
Worshipping the rotating stars in the sky,
Chasing the winds to God knows where.
A place where wondrous things stretch endlessly,
Valleys and mountains bend to your will,
Flowers rise from the earth to kiss your feet,
A place where time himself had stood still.
Where rains of the monsoon sing thee to sleep,
And soft heather serves to rest thy weary head,
Aurorian lights dance in the night's sky,
Where fires keep thee company till they burn themselves dead.
Child of the earth, take me with thee,
Where the oceans roar and rivers sing,
Where the winds serenade so sweetly,
Where whispers of the earth so great a bounty brings.
Where the oceans roar and rivers sing,
Where winds serenade oh so sweetly,
And where whispers of the earth so great a bounty brings.
Take me on a journey with thee,
Where eagles soar and stallions run,
Kind rains wash away every sorrow,
Where rays of sunset kiss thee when the day is done.
Free from all the shadows,
Outrunning every perusing nightmare,
Worshipping the rotating stars in the sky,
Chasing the winds to God knows where.
A place where wondrous things stretch endlessly,
Valleys and mountains bend to your will,
Flowers rise from the earth to kiss your feet,
A place where time himself had stood still.
Where rains of the monsoon sing thee to sleep,
And soft heather serves to rest thy weary head,
Aurorian lights dance in the night's sky,
Where fires keep thee company till they burn themselves dead.
Child of the earth, take me with thee,
Where the oceans roar and rivers sing,
Where the winds serenade so sweetly,
Where whispers of the earth so great a bounty brings.

Magnificent. Definitely takes one on a journey, one with soft downy images that comforts and embraces. Wonderful piece, full of bright longing and rich colors.

I have to agree with the previous comments, great soft images, like looking through a rainy window. I'm not positive what or who exactly your referring to with the "Child of the earth" though I don't feel the need to, and your emotions and imagery come through great.
