~ The Realm of New Hope ~
I've seen a place
a green oasis of harmony
where the spirit knows freedom
and love is evergreen
do you believe in the power of a whisper
have you seen the wind gently brush against the fern
witness their unity
and bow to their grace?
find your center
and follow your true self
trust that the forest shields you
from all that doesn't matter
walk with me
into the realm of new hope
I've seen a place where time ceases to exist
take my hand, let's see where we wake up tomorrow.

Week 52.10 Topic: Is Time Irrelevant?
Bonus Prompts:
Hard (2 pts): Incorporate a Maroon 5 lyric *
Easy (1 pt): Include a town in Wisconsin **
* "Take my hand, let's see where we wake up tomorrow"
(from Lost Stars, technically Adam Levine and not Maroon 5)
** I used twelve, in the following order:
Oasis / Harmony / Spirit / Freedom / Evergreen / Fern /
Unity / Center / True / Forest / Shields / New Hope
There are days I wish it were so.
ReplyDeleteIts a lovely image and so hard to keep. But I have to say I shocked at all the Wisconsin towns. I lived in Wisconsin for a while and don't remember any of those.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised by how many cool names there are for towns there. As you can see, I loved a lot of them lol!
DeleteYour friends in Wisconsin are going to wonder where this magical town is. The key to the roadmap is finding true center, as you clearly stated.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this immensely, Dahlia.
Do I know anyone in Wisconsin? I actually took this photo at a place in the Bay Area, here in Cali. But I do agree with you, that finding true center is the key.
DeleteLove you madly <3
Glad to take your hand and follow. 8 points Earthling
