grotto dweller
floor
of peat,
canopy
of evergreen
subtle hint of musk
golden sunlight streaming
here, a wide-eyed girl could dream
in solitary blissfulness
this place where faerie folk assembled
where the muse was e’er so near
I spent hours listening
to whispers on the breeze
bumblebees, birdsong,
leaves, a-flutter,
in this place
my heart
soared

I spent many hours there when I was 6 years old.

I don’t suppose many youngsters are allowed to have such fantastic places to dream away their days now. Reminds me very much of my early years.

Once upon a time, when kids could head out the door at dawn and return when the street lights came on, we had the freedom to explore all sorts of wonderful things. Since then I’m afraid the world has become a scarier place. It saddens me.
