As we sit here together
In a field of purple lilac flowers
Smelling the refreshing scent
Resembling ever lasting youth
The lilac field is a wonderful sight
to view
With their scent filling our lungs in
random abandon
As the scent surrounds us
We take in the liveliness we feel
We wonder and ponder around before
we lie down
Lying in the field next to the streams
of beautiful crystal clear water flowing
in the middle of all the lilacs like a
paradise
Our eyes close in unity
The flowers rustle in the wind
They symbolize the life and youth
within us
And in old age makes a man
As we lay in the field of purple lilac
flowers we rest our eyes while we
slowly dose off into a deep sleep

total tranquility
As we enter our senior years we begin to perceive the world and it's beauty differently, taking time to appreciate that which we took for granted.
I suppose it is like falling in love with the natural world and yes... its very comforting to lay down in the countryside, alone with mother nature, and let the world outside our immediate senses drift away as we ourselves drift into sleep.
You captured it.
