A Remedy For a Restless Soul

Plodding quietly through the silent trees,
In the pleasing warmth of the summer breeze...
Into the hushy world of the creatures so small,
Listening to those strange and endearing calls...

I decided to trace that euphonious melody,
It kept me searching tirelessly for so long...
Just a simple sign I needed at that stance
To be sure that fate hadn't proven me wrong...

I felt like growing among the colossal barks,
Missing that sight with the passion of swirling wind...
Enchanted with the progress that I had made,
Stretching out my weakened arms; simple fairy wings...

I stood silent for a memorable speck of time,
Reliving those moments that had already passed...
Reminiscing the pleasure that I had once witnessed,
Eventually looking for my childhood past...

My eyes had started to feel tired and stiff
Nestled in the face where limitations are a part...
As far as my vision went,
It seemed so fulfilling to witness the majestic art...

I realized that I had finally obtained
Standing alone in the golden light,
A purpose to admire the beautiful World
Effortlessly each day and every divine night

I wanted to know and puzzle out why,
Roads of heartless concrete occupied my way
Where the small twigs once used to unfurl,
Now the splendor of every season betrays...

That verdure of my majestic village,
Once a source of great ecstasy...
Now was gradually vanishing from sight,
Turning my memories into a fantasy...

Still there was nothing I could possibly do,
To counter what all had been brutally done...
Under this veil of supreme development,
My nature was dying and the devil had won...

Concluding the vast stretch a man can live,
Fearing the ultimate end of a daunting cliff...
I tried to resist the poignance of my pensive mood,
Only to pity for what I had never valued...

Still that particular moment felt special
As I had relived that happiness once again...
Witnessing the serenity that was still around,
I was sure that my efforts hadn't gone in vain...

In the midst of the aromatic mustard field
Where flowed the savory nectar and the honeybees kneeled...
Backed up by breathtaking hills that never fail to appeal,
An overwhelming beauty which often misty clouds conceal...

In that explicit heat of the moment, I felt noting but totally infinite...
Celebrating the salubrious mornings and delightful afternoons
Enjoying the nippy evening and every caliginous night...

With gratitude in my heart and feelings quite convincing,
I resolutely decided to trail back home...
As I discovered the enlivening tone that had, 
In the beginning, propelled me to roam...

And it was that delicacy I had always loved to chase,
Simply to hold it once in my life and lovingly embrace.
