nahant beach floating

Jan 17

as I look out into the winter storm and follow each snowflake down to it’s rest

I envy the way it floats with grace, taking the direction of the wind

I picture myself in a state closest to this feeling, against gravity, at peace and weightless

in the water, feeling the waves

playful, but strong, I allow their force

refreshing & crisp, I feel alive

my ability to allow nature to push and pull my body, somehow feels like freedom
