"Just like this / With the kiss / Of these October breezes"


Poem Artwork

Sweet October Saturday

 

As I rest from my labors

I notice that my neighbors

Are some of the quietest people I know

 

On this silent Saturday

I write poetry and say

That the way I choose to live my life is slow

 

Just like this

With the kiss

Of these October breezes

 

I am free

And will be

Of stress-induced diseases

 

Others can keep their fast lane and the strife

Of chasing what cannot be caught

Mine is a useful if a quiet life

Which can neither be sold nor bought

Hi Steven - I envy you that you can just enjoy life without feeling a need to mold it around you. My whole life has been about building things. Businesses, structures, relationships, what have you. This poem is just what I needed to slow down a bit and enjoy the day. ~ Sara

The gifts we give ourselves are the best and the gift of a quiet October Saturday seems like one of the best.

What a wonderful way to live. It puts me in the mind of Norman Rockwell.
