A Mountain Breeze Was Flowing

A mountain breeze was flowing, as I sat by a stream along a road, feeling the gentle coolness against my sun-kissed face, getting relief from my resting spot. A mountain breeze was flowing as I looked and saw the airy breeze swaying among the matriarchs of the dell providing a shaded canopy with the heat of a summer day. A mountain breeze was flowing, as birds felt the gentle coolness among their feathers making them soar majestically against the perfectly blue and cloudless sky. A mountain breeze was flowing, as my senses were at ease, enjoying the solitude and peacefulness except for a scolding squirrel who on occasion reminded me I was in its territory, 1/25/18

Congrats to you here, Sonia. I am so sorry I did not get to you sooner. I am way behind in my comments and I happened to scroll way down and remembered you'd written to me that you were a cancer survivor too. That is incredible to have it twice and overcome it. They told me second time would be fatal usually for breast cancer victims. Bless you!!
