What lys beyond your fields of imagination

The cedar trees smell remind me of a cabin dream I had as a young lad. The corn fields so high U could be invisible for days. At that point you might as well lay down and take a nap. Soon while you slumber the woods will get wind of you an innocent dreaming the Forrest life to live animation.  The butterfly talks to you and ask how your day is. The hummingbirds sing your favorite song to you. The rabbits perform a dance on a mound of dirt as their stage. The old catapillar smokes a pipe wondering why everyone has to be so loud. The clouds in the sky play with figurines like an itch-A-Sketch and make you laugh. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better the ducks and geese put on acrobatics that put an experienced pilot to shame. Suddenly there's a gun shot in the air and everyone scatters. You wake and it's just Farmer Sam's old beater Ford back firing again. You look for proof of what you thought was real and all you find is rabbit fur on the dirt mound and that was enough for you. You walk away smiling and happy.
