In the clean,
crisp air
of early morning,
I make my way
down to the field
where I plan to spend most of the day.
My heart pounds,
my body trembles
nervously as I walk.
Today, I leave this earth,
if only temporarily.
I settle down beneath a tree,
perfectly alone as
I open my brown paper bag.
Inside, my escape
to a better world,
my early morning confidence helping me relax.
After about an hour or relaxing
bright circles appear,
floating around in my empty field.
They're friendly, welcoming
to me, pulling me out of my lazy state.
Running freely, I follow them
with not a care in the world.
the field has turned vivid, bright and colorful,
the warmth dancing on my skin.
This running doesn't last long
as I slip down in the middle of the field.
The big beautiful sky passing by,
the clouds wave hello
as they pass by me
and that early morning confidence takes me away to a happier place.
