Travelling

I was here
I was there

Whimsical fantasy
Voyage of the mind
Travelling quickly

From one location
To the next

The palace spins
A forest of faries
Appears, beautiful

I am gone
Away again, moving

A stream bubbling
Peacefully, soothing sound
I close my eyes

And the world
Runs away, dissipearing

Crystal clear water
Tropically warm, clean
Swimming, I smile

Dissolving, quickly gone
My mind reels

Talking to friends
Enjoying the company
Laughing, funny thoughts

Gone again in
A blazing flash

The blinding light ceases
Back by myself
Writing poetry

Then I'm gone
You ask where?

I know not...
Many interesting places abound.
