Fallen Trees Poem by G J Salgado

When I wake in the fallen trees
I can finally smile once again
This magical forest echoes in the leaves
Dreams come alive upon this land

Stars blow free in the open air
I can go anywhere upon this place
My imagination will take me there
I can stay lost here for days

Before I realized hours had passed
Then the days had also went
Once upon a land without time would last
So many years I had traveled and spent

Upon a fairy-tale that I knew
That would always be
In my heart I believed it true
Taken where my mind would see

When I speak of it I do not think
Any more of myself nor any less
For it all began among a tiny blink
No need for any other soul to witness

What I knew in my soul to be real
Within a mere blink of an eye
Every emotion in the world I could feel
Inside of who I was before I die

I am guided by the forest
From my very own mind
I have forgotten all the rest
With any ideas that I find

This is what new creations and worlds are for
Found among the voices of the fallen willows that call
If I had only knew what I always knew once before
As the new born stars grant wishes by trees that fall
