My inner child took me to an enchanted forest, jumped in the lily pad pond, and swam with the ducks.
She told me to hug the trees and blow kisses to the sky.
She reassured me to not be afraid of angry faces, surprised faces, for in every face, there’s a unique trace.
In the quiet corners where persimmon seeds repose, my home, an enchanted forest, right under my nose!
Between the lines, let’s embark on our embrace— let me share these marvels with you, in this wonderful, cherished space.
But don’t you worry, you won’t need to go far, you can experience this place from right where you are.
