Strolling through the park

beguiled by the warmth of the sun

thoughts are flowing

watching the squirrels run

A long winter

filled with difficult times

fading away to spring

time for something more sublime

On this morning

admiring the lake

ducks are swimming

taking a break

Spirit is relaxed

watching the birds fly

a brief glimpse of life

in the sky

A storm begins

rain begins to shower

taking shelter in a garden

admiring the flowers

Music to my ears

now in a trance

rain radiating a beat

it’s time to dance

A fresh scent in the air

with the fleeing of the storm

tranquility returns

becoming the norm

Leaving the park

in a good mood

nature is healing

spirit is renewed
