High Note

This evening never seemed so nice, at the end of a daylight breeze.... Sunshine without thick humidity Where the crickets sing around me A break from gray filled rainy days The sky prepares for the sun's colorful departure... Fresh air in mountains splendor Everything has its value, simple nothing more All the while, green leaves wait to change color Come sit next to me, surely you will feel it and see It's not in the place of society that makes things work With all the deadlines, promises or a perk It's the place one must choose to be, on a high note to be free Heidi Sands 8/23/23

Oh wow, how beautiful and profound this is.. With a sense of introspection, deep perspective, thinking and soul-searching! One of the crucial things in life is to realise that every symphony has its own rhythm and comes with its own lessons.. We just have to float and flow in the fluid time.. As aligned by the universal guidance.. Those ending lines are so deep and resonating- Hiya :)

Wonderful! I liked your imagery but especially liked the ending that refers to taking the higher ground by not getting caught up the world (society) Thanks for sharing your creativity, Sara
