\n“Untersberg Daydream<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The dentist said<\/p>\n

\u201cGo to your happy place.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is going to hurt, I know.<\/p>\n

Yet, I am already standing<\/p>\n

on top of the Untersberg<\/p>\n

watching swift ravens<\/p>\n

floating above me in wide circles<\/p>\n

on a warm summer breeze.<\/p>\n

Charlemagne is waiting for me<\/p>\n

Inside the mountain.<\/p>\n

He wakes up every hundred years<\/p>\n

To see if the ravens are still flying<\/p>\n

Around the Untersberg.<\/p>\n

I say, \u201cIt is all just fine up here, Charlemagne.\u201d<\/p>\n

See the ravens are still flying. Now<\/p>\n

you can go back to sleep again<\/p>\n

for another hundred years.<\/p>\n

\u00a0You can write a poem about your favorite place, too.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Where do you go in your mind, when you\u00a0 go to your happy place?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Think of an experience you had and put some words down on your paper.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
