Rebirth

the scorching look the sun gives on this hot spring day,

is reincarnation of last year’s spring blues. 

the smell of the earth returning back 

to how i love it to be;

faint smell of orchids carried by the light breeze. 

driving with the windows down,

stress-free, in my small little town. 

it all feels light,

it all feels okay.

it had all felt as if I had been getting moved, solo.

consumed by the demanding crowd. 

consumed by what I had thought I always had to feel like. 

petal by petal, tree by tree, flower by flower

I felt one with the movement of earth

the rebirth

this new feeling I had

felt as if it had finally lifted the curse.
