The Solitude of the Morning

Walking

On stone-packed ground,

Feeling the glorious sunlight and its warmth.

One step 

At a time.

Walking,

In solitude,

Feeling the silence of the morning.

One step 

At a time.

Looking

At the colorful stones

As the wind blows gently

And the birds chirp softly.

Listen.

Watch.

Feel.

One step

At a time.

Listen to the wind blow,

The birds sing,

The crackle of the stones beneath your feet.

Watch your feet

As you take one step after another,

The colors of the stones and the bright blue sky.

Feel the quiet of the morning,

Gentle, soothing, peaceful.

The fresh air, coaxing and invigorating.

One step 

At a time.

Listen.

Watch.

Feel.
