A short poem about the sereneness of laying on the Earth.

Little did I know?

Where upon the Earth I fell

Becometh young from old

From the green in which I lay

As looking through the mist up high

About the myths foretold

The silluettes above

Underneath the Sun so hot

Spiralling in the heat

Did I dream the sound they made?

Where upon the Earth I lay

With the sense of unplace

Way beneath the ground we’re told

Where the Earth is always warm

Are treasures never found?

After our very dying day

Where upon the Earth we lay

We’ll wear that golden shroud

Lay me down to sleep

Where upon the Earth I fell

Becometh young from old

Please let me close me eyes

Eternal peace in my mind

To hear all the myths foretold
