How invigorating...
to be finally free after much
hustle and bustle of daily life!
As the world gets busy
disintegrating bit by bit,
you're someplace else;
far removed from it all;
away from all the stress,
the agitations, the disturbances;
in total harmony
with yourself, with nature;
you get to have a conversation with God.
You get to cherish time
and revisit an inferno
of long-forgotten memories,
Oh, to temporarily retire
to a quiet domesticity
with plenty of time...
to sleep, to relax, to attain
a much-needed peace of mind, to reflect
on what's truly important in life,
what a magnificent rarity!
If you have time to burn
by all means, get away from it all....
