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

Hmm. Delightful use of "sometimes" with all the depictions of freedom and enjoyment of the natural world. I quite enjoyed the scenes you used to express this pleasure in nature. Very nicely written.
I know the exact feeling; like we could just melt inside life through the universe of nature around us and dwell in our dreams.
I love it!!!!! Great Poem.
Best

You know? Drug addictions are really a big epidemic.... but there`s something even more addicting, and something that doesn`t kill you; Emis-poetry-addiction-epidemic 🙂
