AERIAL VIEW

From giddy heights laced with cosy cotton woolly clouds

Hovering high above all life, distant, separated from all that is familiar,

I peer down on a tapestry of shapes and colours, a world of feast and plenty.

Dark black rivers glimmer to cut their path through a coloured spectrum of fields.

Woods break up the patchwork and invite the eye to hidden treasures.

Farmhouses sprinkled across this untouched landscape claim a place for us all.

Nothing moves, there is no sound, serene in its beauty, untouched by any force.

The world lies before my eye, a wonder to behold, magical in its majesty and scale.

One world, our world, ours to have and to appreciate, now’s the time to descend and enjoy.
