Dirt

Everyday, I do the same thing I always do

I get up and go somewhere

I walk outside

And breathe the thin air

I close my eyes as I exhale

Around me I can hear birds chirping

It's so calming

I need calm

Towering trees stare down at me

Leaves surround me,

And crinkle beneath my feet

It's smells like pine trees

It's quiet up in the hills

Some people don't have quiet

They only have busy streets

And cramped schedules

They need quiet

They need this calm

They need the hills, and the trees

Need the birds, and the leaves
