Snap

SNAP


I love the feeling of a crisp fall day
as I walk into the bare and quiet woods
where pine needles snap under my feet
and unseen creatures scurry away.

I can feel my lungs fill with the frosty air.
I exhale and can see my own breath
in a soft cloud of misty smoke.
The tingle of the chilly air tickles my nose.

White clouds billow and float
against the prettiest blue sky I ever saw.
Geese honk as they fly overhead
in their V-shaped splendor.


The trees rustle in quiet adoration.
So quiet, so serene.
Such a beautiful time of year.
I feel alive.
