In the Woods, a Tunnel
Just twigs, almost see-through
I had no idea when I entered it
That I would travel to another
Place, another dimension entirely
In just a few short steps, going
From one end of that tunnel
To the other in the woods
In broad daylight – I found myself
Stepping free of the thing
Into a massive field of flowers
The like of which I’ve never see
Multi-coloured flowers carpeting
The ground as far as I could see
And the perfume in the air
Was so heavy and intoxicating
My head hung down on my shoulders
And my eyes watered from the colours
Or the scents, I could not tell which
For a moment I thought this must be
How Alice felt when down the rabbit
Hole she tumbled – then my mind
Wandered off somewhere else
Then back again and worrying set in
Wondering where the tunnel was
And how I would get back to it
Or if I would and could I go through
To normal again? Would I want to...
awesome take...
