My eyes close as the wind around me dances in the air.
Light droplets of water gently fall from the sky
as my eyes flicker open.
The earth is still –
Full of silence that fills the summer air.
My heart beats in my chest
aching for the sun to shine
as the rain silently falls.
Soaking wet to the bone –
Letting the cold water trickle down my skin, I stand…
Listening.
I inhale deeply, smelling the sweet moist air of Mother Nature –
Smiling to myself.
I listen closely, exerting myself, silently wondering –
Listening to my surroundings.
I gently tap my foot on the soft concrete floor –
Waiting for my sweet earth to beckon me.
My heart beats faster; my pulse rising –
Adrenaline runs through me, tingling my fingers… making them go numb.
As the magnificent sun breaks through the heavy-grey-dark clouds,
shining down on me…
I let the spin-thrilling warmth –
The beauty soak in me
as I let the sweet taste of Mother Nature linger in my mouth
savoring every second.
It is time, the earth –
My earth whispers to me
As a slow burst of wind brushes by me calling my name.
A slow smile emerges from my face as the earth beckons me to come…
It is the nature inside of me.
