Afternoon Walking

Went for a much due walk this afternoon 1/26/10

Fresh air

deeply needed.

 

Mid springs grace relieves the soul.

 

Dancing in the street

Flips and tricks off curbs.

 

Balancing the curb

watching the clouds fly by.

 

Deep intake of Air

 

Sun and moon

wave their goodbyes

as they pass through time.

 

Clouds surpress the weather.

 

Trees begin to grow,

awakening from their slumber,

to the grass tickling their toes.

 

Wonderment of the world

 

Pine cones fall from the heavens

 

Mud paints the worlds new canvas.

 

Kittens walk the street

Paw to paw and eye to eye.

 

Leaves old

sprinkled across the earth

waiting for their predecessors

to be born

 

Rays of sun make their ways through the branches

Of oaks and pine lighting up the beauty.

 

Tree's so high, can barely see th top.

 

Crunching of leaves and twigs below my heels.

 

Grey clouds on the edge of light;

no threat to come.

 

Leaning trees bow down to beauty,

as it rains down in showers of yellow and gold.

 

Dream makers take flight

as I walk by.

 

This world is so much more

 

than the fast cars

 

drugs

 

money that we consume like air.

 

Breathe in the sun

Let out the pain and dissapointment.

 

Live life in the beauty of the world
