On the Run

cool and calm the morning mist
lake and mountains here are kissed
only me, some crows and bees
finally I feel at ease

human beings, sometimes fun
have me now on the run
somewhere nature's soothing balm
overwhelms, a living calm

where soaring mountains disappear
as morning mists have come too near
rocky crags that pierce the sky
unseen now by naked eye

as naked mind now resonates
with naked soul while sharing fates
becoming one with all around,
call of birds the only sound -

lake and mountains, morning mist
embrace me calmly as I'm kissed
and too coolly am embraced,
recharged again once more to face

civilization's noisy thrust
cool and calm, it's now i must
carry on from day to day
recalling nature's here to stay...
