A Breath of Fresh Air

Where is she?  Where did she go?
I haven’t seen her in days
It’s like she just disappeared
Please help me find her.

I’ve looked here, I’ve looked there
I still can’t find her
Please help me find her
Before it’s too late.

We spoke a few days ago
She seemed to be just fine
And now she’s gone
What do I do now?

I think I just caught a glimpse of her
I know it was her
She seemed to act different
But, I think it was her.

There she is now
I must talk with her
I have to see what happened
I’m sure there’s a logical explanation.

Are you okay?
I’ve been so worried.
I thought something might have happened to you
Please talk to me.

“Well, I remember a feeling of being trapped
Four walls were closing in on me
The pressure was so much I couldn’t stand it
I had to get away for awhile.

I’m back though
And I feel so much better
I just needed a little room to breathe
So I took a walk for a breath of fresh air.

I feel I tapped a phone conversation - or overheard two talking in the next booth- - this IS a breath of fresh air!

Hi Susan,

This is so great, I have been stuck in some pretty sragnate air lately maybe I should spend some time with a good friend Miss. Mother Nature yep she is one of my releifs and I have not been seeing much of her. Wonderful work here my friend enjoyed much.
