To Just Be

I can remember
the sound of water
flowing as easily
as the sun's gentle burn
beautifully painting the trees
the colors of life

There was always
the easy sounds
of nature playing the soundtrack
to our laughter and innocence
during our journey
of undiscovered paths
through the forest

Summer moments
drifting by
with childhood friends
who never stopped to wonder
why
time would move so fast
the day
was the day
and nothing else

And now
when the brutally cold
day in
and day out of life
encompasses
so much of what we do
I find myself wanting to be that kid again
to be innocent
and free
to just be

Awesome

So relatable Mig! That was really great!

Very poignant .. you have such a talent

Beautiful
