The Backyard

The green grass on the ground
And the blue sky up above me
The whispering wind in my ear
WOOSH
Blowing on me
The yellow sun low down
Warming up my face
The perfect spot for thoughts and reflection
A peaceful distractionless place
When I open the backdoor to the yard
I find myself in full tranquillity
When I’ve got the wind, the grass and the trees
I’m in my own mindful facility
I love my yard, a place where you
Feel the world around you
Hear the songs of the birds
With the weight of the world
Right off your back and on the ground
