'Street Signs' - on your way to work

'Hospital- this Way' is my familiar street sign, I park my car, then step out onto dew soaked grass. Cars whiz past, engines roar in unison. My footsteps echo onto the pavement as I walk. Brisk walking strides propel me toward my workplace. Magpies, in the trees warble their morning greeting. The crisp clear air bites my uncovered fingers. People pass by, some ignore, others smile,"Morning" At the traffic lights I wait to cross, Green Man, my turn More birds fly overhead, destination unknown. Around the corner, another cross over- I stop, take in a full breath, exhale, Marvel at the feeling of just being alive. I arrive at the hospital my workplace.
