I often dream I'm under water
Thinking I will surely drown
Thrashing
Sinking ever down
Then cautiously
I open my eyes
Much to my surprise
I see a brand new world
One I’ve never seen before
Existing peacefully
Just below the surface
Submerged Nirvana
Peaceful flowing garden
A familiar place indeed
Hauntingly familiar
As if I’ve been here before
It leaves me wanting more
Calms me to my very core
And I smile........
