The Exquisite Creature

Standing at my bedroom window, I gaze out at the meadow as it stretches for miles behind my home.
The green pastures covered with bursts of vibrant yellow dandelions, encroaching on the fields of fallow.
A beautiful doe makes its way across the dew soaked grass, nuzzling the ground in search of the fresh, new sprouts of spring.
This exquisite creature, so sleek and elegant, suddenly turns it's face up toward me
and in a flash...
is gone.
Bounding over the meadow toward the forest,
its haven away from the exposure of the open field.
The sway of the tall grass as the wind rustles through it is almost mesmerizing.
As if in a trance, my heart rate slows,
my breathing becomes more shallow, and my mind settles into a peaceful, meditative state.
A calmness falls over me... envelopes me like a warm scarf on a bitter cold day.
I am happy.
I am content.
I am free...just like that exquisite creature in the meadow.
Life is good.
