The wind blows through my hair,
and the rain drops hit my skin -
I inhale pine, dirt & wild life.
Arms are held high in ecstasy
as my body squirms with delight.
This freedom I have tasted
in the few minutes I have stolen
is like a new me,
I am being born again.
Rushing waters ahead
and birds speaking aloud;
the Earth moves beneath my feet.
