Poetry week day 5 :)

This poem is my interpretation of the picture at the header of my blog. My friend Rachel, had this picture on facebook (It's a professional picture, she didn't take it) and I fell in love with it. Now it is everywhere from my Twitter homepage, to the background screen of my laptop, phone, and blog. I don't think a picture has ever spoken directly TO me like this one has. I. Love. It.


I am silent as I hear the breeze
hush through the trees.
The tall grass
tickles the back of my knees.
I toss my head back
and let the wind have its way with my hair.
I slowly close my eyes
as I escape with the breeze.
Floating away to a place of peace.
Every muscle in my body is relaxed.
And in this perfect moment, I belong to nature.

Katie
