A FIELD OF SUNSHINE

An exit appeared, and

there was no way 

to avoid 

crossing the threshold.

I was suddenly 

on the other side

of a vast expanse.

I can see

the old and sticky 

web of tricks 

from where I came.

I choose to look ahead and

take the trail, 

full of thick roots and 

interesting stones, 

into the wilderness.

Along the path,

I discover 

fragrant healing flowers

on the wayside.

I gather pinecones,

and set up a 

lovely abode in the trees

with a field of sunshine 

for a living room.

I traipse around the forest,

playing with animals, insects and plant spirits.

I sing and dance around the fire

with the stars and moonlight.

I am free.

I am happy.

The trail 

continues.

I wonder 

where it will take me, 

tomorrow.
