Mendocino

Delicate web of fog blankets gently
Caressing the rocky golden bluffs
Gold, feathery sway of tall dry grass
We run to the edge with open arms
Begging the sun to sneak a peak
Wind weaves sweet songs in our hair
Waves match the mother's heartbeat
Our mother's heartbeat luring us
Nature's lullaby rocks us back
Brings us to beautiful calm
Washes away our worries
Rejuvenation, rebirth comes
With this quiet little town
Creativity infuses our hearts
Our minds fill with simplicity
Drawing comfort in buzzing of
Hummingbird wings
Miniature pine trees wave
Squeaks of rusty old bikes
Bring smiles to our faces
We race down the windy hill
Throwing laughs around
in Mendocino.
