Safe Haven

Soft sunlight

Warming our bodies

Cold from the long night

We stand up

Shaking the dew from the morning's melt off of our fur

We leap into the wildflowers

Running along the river,

Flowing at an easy pace.

We are carefree,

You will be, too,

If you let your mind wander to such a faraway place that seems so

Impossible

You can reach this

You can climb to this height of living

Of existence

It just takes effort

Perseverance

Hope

To reach your safe haven.

  • My writing

    My favorite type of writing

    is when I'm in the zone

    I'm typing

    no hesitations

    just plugging in all of my honest thoughts and opinions into my somewhat-anonymous profile

    spinning deeper and deeper into my spirals

  • Winter

    It's cold out

    it's snowing

    falling slowly

    steadily

    reassuringly

    it brings a sense of calm

    the world has begun the process of renewing;

    once the snow melts

    it will be spring

    life will return
