I Have Seen a Valley~

I have seen a valley,
with a blue mist blowing.
The shadows hanging over it,
like wide winged birds.
And splashing through it blindingly,
the sun's gold showing:
A living thing of light and shade
too exquisite for words.

I have hung it in my heart,
too keep it there forever.
And when the day is long and dry,
and furious with heat,
I walk along a corridor,
and turn to it and ever
Find a valley with a mist,
blowing cool and sweet.

It drenches me like silver rain,
and I am ever knowing...
A secret place of lovliness,
of light, and shade, and shine.
I have seen a valley,
with a blue mist blowing.
And it has come to be
a thing imperishably mine...

This poem reminds me of Ukarumpa...Aiyura Valley~ I know when I feel really lonely, and am missing home alot, I close my eyes and try to remember Ukarumpa and all my friends and family there. Sometimes it makes me cry, but alot of times it makes me smile and remember sweet moments.
