Halcyon
Peaceful and soothing.
Just like the dirt roads in the middle of nowhere
That's halcyon to me
Driving with the windows down
Music up, hair blowing
Watching the dirt fly behind me
And feeling the cool warm air on my skin
Then I stop by the woods
I sit and listen.
Listening to all the little sounds going on
I hear rustles of animals and birds in the trees and grass
I hear the crickets and buzzing of cicadas
I lean my head back on my seat and close my eyes to enjoy the moment
And for a modicum of time
I'm at peace.
These are the idyllic moments I live for.
These are the moments I'm content with everything
I forget all my worries and everything is quiet
This is when I'm happy.
