Purring thoughts rocking chair morning birds chirping serenity leaves whispering softness soft blue skies of solitude lazy laid back mediation. Fresh air fragrance morning crisp awakening dancing squirrel limbs music rustling quiet face of spiritual contentment elevated aroused sensitivity. Window of charge dark clouds of mood swings humidity clinging sweat awaiting stillness of doom storming rush of madness fearful anticipation. Drenching sheets whipping limbs to breaking points surviving will power resilience until struck by flashing light bolts exploding shards of toothpicks. Closed window of isolation curtains drawn darkness heartbeats of anguish loneliness of depression walls collapsing cloister phobia expectations of the worst. Sounds crashing around you whirling doubts of surviving deafening unknowns spirit revolving into faith retreating threats of harm sounds of silence. Cracked window of mystery opening up to new imagery Nature’s healing power men working clearing trees wet fur shook dry birds happy to sing again. Water puddles of mud drying into potholes sun evaporation of normalcy leaves floating again surviving butterflies fluttering rebounding spirit reawakening. Open window of new sounds pristine night sky of peace universe of endless stars rocking chair again purring warm breezes blanketing eyes fading dreams. Sunrise of dancing squirrels birds singing even louder sprouts of new life eyes purring their love rocking chair morning gone full circle.
