180 – Joy
Left, right,
Left, right.
Rhythmic sound of running feet
On freshly fallen leaves.
Left, right,
Left, right.
Strong perfume of pine-needles
Playing in the breeze.
Left, right,
Left, right.
Lights and shadows dancing
Under ancient trees.
Left, right,
Left, right.
Vague glimpses of a distant city
far below the mountain.
Left, right,
Left, right.
Mind and body fully present
With the trail.
Left, right,
Left, right.
Demons’ voices
silenced.
