Comfort Zone
Walking on a white, sandy beach
Feeling the vastness and abundance of the Universe.
Feeling the soft, wet sand as the waters roll over my feet
The warmth of the golden sun beating down on me.
Sitting on a rock amidst a brook,
Feeling calm and complete
Listening to the waterfall emptying her bounty into the sweet brook.
Lying on my stomach, my face turned to one side
Feeling the soft, cool emerald grass
Listening to the brook and waterfall.
Walking on an arched staircase bridge
Pausing atop a platform.
Observing the serene, azure waters of the river flowing beneath.
Admiring the beauty of the forest beyond.
Descending the agate staircase bridge
Crossing over to land with rich green grass.
Divided at the center by an ivory path adorned with multi-colored flowers on either side.
The path leading to another stone staircase embedded in a cozy hill.
To my right of the ivory path, a smooth bluish white marble fountain well, it's colors reflecting the sky.
Springing up fresh, crystal clear water ready to quench any traveler's thirst.
Inviting.
To my left, brushes and groves patterned in a circle, vibrantly green.
Being in Nature. Feeling right at home.
