Canadia

I sit in the shade against a tree
And dream of places I've never been
Things I didn't know could be
People I have never seen

The city sounds so far away
The birds and bugs are the voice of today
A gentle breeze blows troubles away
I feel protected, come what may

I think of you in you distant world
Sugar-frosted, glass and purl
I watch my life slowly unfurled
With you, my snow angel, my girl
