Sap Up to Charge

prose on tranquility

I smell the neighbor’s pine tree

while passing on the sidewalk

and I feel an immediate sense of calm.

Charged like a crystal

with tranquil energy.

Beaming an aura of greens, blues, and purples.

Transported to a pine-needle blanket

in the middle of the forest.

Meditating on what the smell of

the tree’s sap does to my being.

Then, I float home.
