Trying Not to Settle
The refreshing change of the seasons
fills me with an immense need
for being at peace.
For instance,
when this cool tree sap Fall morphs into
a wet smokestacky Winter,
I'll want nothing more than to
read next to open bedroom windows while rain pours down.
There's an opportunity to find the new rhythm,
the new beat to set the tone for my days,
every so often.
