To walk outside
on what may feel like an endless string
of dull grey mornings
to breathe deeply in
the fresh cold dampened air
fill your lungs
then another large gulp
and let it filter through every wonderous bit
of your body
washing down to your toes
take a few steps
in flip flops no less
feel a mist like sprinkling
accompanied by the most graceful dance
of intermittent snow flakes
no possible need for thoughts
of any kind
for worries or concerns of a day
the skies aren’t offering much
in distraction
still, you go
just soft careful steps
in a garden dappled with snow
wet leaves and
the occasional dogs’ droppings
just a breath of fresh air
and the most wonderful feeling
of love
in the world
this is it you know, this
is where you find it
it is just
this
simple
so do take a moment
today
it’s waiting
for you
just…
to step out ♥
