The Root Tree (Walden Three)...

Follow the Fence line
     along the Highway
     to the River...
The rhythm of the car,
     hypnotic in the beat,
     the rise and fall
     like Waves
     crashing down
     upon it all,
     can hold you
     in its thrall
     and lead your mind
     to what some might
     unkindly say
     or call astray...
But it is all in
     the Point of View,
     others say...
And what is Mad
     and what is Sad to you,
     might I have a chance to say?...
We all have our Demons,

     the Hopes
     and the Dreams
     we rely on
     to make it through the Day...
At just what stage
     are you  comfortable,
     what is all you need
     as the End of your Day?...
Just a patch of blue and green
     with colors changing
     with the Seasons,
     it seems is all I need,
     a Sheltered Existence
     in the simplest sense...
Again, it seems to me,
     is all I've ever seemed to Dream...
