hushed

[Dastrix Slogan]

the small blue clouds froze
anchored in their river in the sky
as the sun blinked out on the land
the birds became calm
the wind swooped low
then put its head
on the ground
and dozed
just for a bit

the world had stopped
and was still

hushed

peace fell slowly from the sky
like warm soft snow
gently kissing my soul

i lent back
inhaled
breathed
my first breath

below me i could feel
the grass stretching up
reaching skyward
longing for the rain

and for one brief moment
i am alive
alive in springtime
in africa

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
there's just something about living here, which makes me feel like this!
