I Seem To Arrive

The sun does shine and the sky is blue I walk out the door the world looks brand new All the things I see are as they were before Perhaps my eyes are open a little bit more. The birds are singing and flying above the ground The Squirrels are chasing each other around No one else here just me and this world Like flowers opening up the beauty is unfurled. It seem most of my life I’ve taken so much for granted It seems to limit my options and my opinions became slanted Today I just marvel in all of the sights Where once had been darkness now there is light. I go to this place right down the street I see the world placed at my feet I find a bench and grab a seat No one is around it feels like a treat. The only sounds come from the animals around The dew dries from the grass without making a sound It is so green and lush it makes me feel alive With no destination I seem to arrive.
