Just when I think I want to run back
to where it was I ran here from,
Spring visits, the cows graze close,
watch out for bulls! Here they come!

Spike jumps into the creek
though he hates taking a bath,
the cat jumped out the window
and we can't retrace her path.

What a beautiful day to sit outside
and drink sun-brewed iced tea,
to become one with the nature here,
and forget about the sea.

A fine day to enjoy a marriage,
our family, and being free-
I sure don't feel like running now,
because this is where I'm meant to be.

Yo dear Passing shadows,

That's good dear.

Bear in mind that wherever you are, that's obviously where you're meant to be.

Love Bobby

The awareness of being where we are meant to be brings joy. The heart perceives feelings of renewal when the Spring sun shines.

I enjoyed together with you this beautifully described moment, dear Dixie.

Love,
Margherita

reading this poem makes me feel the contentment that you described in your work.  Reading this poem made this day a little brighter, a little better, a little more friendly.  This poem is a joy.
