Reconnecting
Pressing Restart
On those days I'm out of words
with too much on my mind to say
Caught up in my little world
and the trials of a busy day
I find a quiet refuge, just gazing at the stars
it opens up my cage, and loosens all the bars
My desire is, escape
I don't mean to shut you out
A day lost at the lake
remembering what life's all about
It's the little things that press restart
and salvage peace of mind
Those moments held inside your heart
when stress begins to make you blind
A deep breath and some time to think
to wring out the worries in my head
Nature heals me, in a wink
to move on, and push ahead

Pressing reset, just a little time & space for renewal, to recharge, is just so important for all of us. And, as always, Kelli, you say it so extremely well.
I love this poem and how reconnecting with nature brings you peace ❤️ Beautiful in so many ways!
This is such a beautiful, relaxing and soothing poem!
Wow I really connected with that one! Really felt the whole thing! Especially the opening lines, out of words, too much to say, that was fantastic!
This felt like serenity in words
A lovey poem, Kelli! I find my respite and reset in nature, too!
