Vincent Topp - Long Time Awake

The mountains scratch the sky
Birds of prey shield the sun from unprotected eyes
Nature is secure
Nature is the ruler.
Clouds sprinkle rain, with magical restorative powers
There’s fortune in this land, above and below ground
Everyday day is a gift.
The seas are high but the waves are mellow
Everything’s in order
Everyone has their own space.
Nature is perfect, Nature is the queen
The hours go slowly by,
Long Time Awake

Vincent Topp
