Sometimes

Sometimes I’ll wait

Patiently under the autumn red leaves

Waiting for the first drop of rain

To dance in, to breathe in

 

Sometimes I’ll stop

In mid-stride on a path of dirt

To admire above me

The songs the jay beautifully asserts

 

Sometimes I’ll close my eyes

And instead feel the rhythm of life

The breeze gently blowing in my face

Letting go all of my strife

 

Sometimes I’ll get carried on the wind

High above the horrid cities

With the noisy cars and sirens

Towards the people below I hold much pity

 

Sometimes I’ll get lost by design

Just to explore something new and unseen

Take in all of the sights, sounds, smells

Lie down in the grass, fragrant and green

 

Sometimes I’ll become part of nature

Just so I will be the freest I can be

Let my soul fly through the open air

And just dream and dream
