a rare chance i had to just get away


 


Days to reflect on life


Wow, big-no, huge task


So much I craved this time alone


Time for crazy and for sanity


 


Time for rides through tree lined streets


Walks by a historical river


The river runs through my country


Like my thoughts flow through me


 


Thoughts of being young and growing old


Reflecting on all that shapes who I am

A nice simple write on a very complex subject Karen. The answers, I trust, were pleasing.
