My Secret Place

There's a place I go when I want to hide When I am sad and hurt inside A place on earth that is all mine A place that's dark cause the sun don't shine There's water there though not much There's snakes, lizards, beetles and such I leave them alone and they don't bother me If I sit real still I don't think they see Evergreens there are and they are green They're the tallest trees you've ever seen There are bushes there. They're all dead wood If I was stronger I'd pull them up if I could I don't think a living soul has been here forever And that's fine with me. I hope they don't ever Cause I claim this desolate place as mine No other would want it. To me it's divine. Copyright © 2008 Lunaria (Lila May Guptill)
