"The Place of My Dreams"

There is a place I know, or do I ?
There is a crystal clear river,
the sun shines on it
and makes the water look as though
diamonds are strewn all over it.

The mountain tips are
covered with snow.
The earth is covered with
a green blanket.
I see a house
which is painted white.
There are trees on both
sides of the path.
Flowers are blooming everywhere,
they are scattered all over the path.
My feet crush them,
imprinting them on the path.

I see somebody watching me
from the house.
Is it a man I see?
Suddenly my heart starts beating faster,
my walk turns into a run.
I knock at the door.
I knock at the door and wait for it to open.
When it is opening, I am shaken out of my
reverie without seeing the face of the man!

P.S. I am not sure it can be called a verse :), yet
it was written impromptu one year ago while sitting
in the class and getting bored by the lecture .
