I open the window on a dazzling afternoon

For no reason, I run down a shady path.

I take a deep breath, close my eyes, and

imagine out the stage settings for my tomorrows.

The new page that i have imagined.

I paint onto a clean, white canvas.

Without heeding the opposing headwind, I clear my path

and continue creating this never-ending Brand New Story.

Wonderful days.

On the zebra-stripes of the crosswalk

when the light turns green.

I run across, stepping only on the white lines

like a child.

If i could stay this way forever... fanned by a gentle breeze...

staying true to myself.

If i could do that.

I face the distant sky and stretch out both hands

in order to realise my hopes and dreams

I entrust them to the future and set them free.
