City life can be so busy that it's difficult to concentrate.
You decide to go out for a walk to clear your mind,
But there's cars zooming past and bright lights from buildings and traffic lights.
Cranes and construction sites are overhead clanging and banging.
All the noise and activity can be tiring and make it difficult to relax and be in the present moment.
As you walk along,
You come to the outside of a path that's intriguing.
The path is densely filled with trees,
So much that it's even dark and dim.
You decide to step in and explore.
There's a narrow dirt path that you start to walk on.
You hear the sound of a crow overhead and see numerous trees all around.
One tree was knocked down and you need to step over to continue on your walk.
As you walk further on the path,
The sounds of the city start to fade and the sounds of nature start to surround you and come to life.
You hear and see a squirrel climbing up a tree.
Different birds are chirping and fluttering their wings,
Moving from tree to tree.
Insects make their soft,
Rhythmic sounds around you.
As you walk,
You look down at your feet and notice each one hit the ground.
From the heels,
To the pinky toe ball mounds,
And then the big toe ball mounds.
Step by step.
Red and white flowers are blooming and bees are buzzing while they sip nectar from flowers of their choosing.
You take a breath in and a breath of fresh air.
You notice the floral scents around you.
As you continue to walk,
You start to hear children playing and running around.
You see you're reaching the end of the walking path,
Feeling refreshed by the nature around you.
Now you feel ready to face the rest of your day.
