Tripping...

Tumbling....
Change of veiw, green and blue
Tumbling away in the distance.
Inviting me to walk the path
enticing, wanting me to follow.
Tripping along excitedly,
smiles at the sun, making shapes in the clouds.
Tweeting of the birds...
rustling of the leaves in the trees.
Whooshing of the wind in my hair...
breathe it in so deep inside.
Air fills my lungs, i exhale...
Stones beneath my feet,
roll away with every step i take.
Close my eyes to feel the warmth.
Sun beaming down on my skin...
Cool breeze dries sweat on my brow,
walking to my own beat now!

Mel

Smiles:) Barbara Are you tripping as in staggering or tripping as in skipping about. Can't really picture the happiness fully with the title you chose.

Mel Inwood As in tripping excitedly over myself...over my emotions as if to put them behind me.
