The Drive
Open skies beckon in something broader
Showcasing air that pushes its way into every corner of my lungs
Cool, fresh, light but filling
Bringing with it hope like waves of positivity radiating through my entire being
Natural light from the sun brightens the whitest of clouds some thick like strung cotton balls others airy as cotton candy but all glistening against a crystal blue sky
Smoky gray mountains majestically cascade like the backdrop of a portrait for royalty
Endless opportunities manifesting in my mind with the energy of completion, wholeness and success.
Anything is possible here as the wind caresses my skin
Eyes shining, blood flowing, brain creating, life happening
Reminding me that I am alive and capable and willing and undeterred
Time slows to unfold surprise scenery beside endless road splitting vast lands
Winding, unpredictable but leading to that magnificent somewhere where I can’t wait to be
Undetermined but pre-destined
The quickening in my heart settles as the consistency of the passing trees reminds me of putting one foot in front of the other assuredly continuing my ascent
Anticipating my arrival, but grateful for the journey…
