How to describe a Saturday like this
If I told you that mountain air and song filled afternoons
Couldn’t touch the way it feels to rise without pause and smile at the sun peeking through the window
Would you believe me?
If I told you that getting wonderfully lost in the woods and stumbling across a field of wildflowers
Is nothing like the sensation of dancing around the kitchen bare legged and completely free
Would you believe me?
If I told you that waking up on Christmas morning with thousands of presents under the tree
Doesn’t even compare to the wonder of waking up in your own skin and feeling its value
Would you believe me?
If I told you that a gourmet breakfast of exotic cheeses and bottomless bubbling beverages
Tastes only half as wonderful as sweet bread and slightly stale coffee
I guarantee you would never believe me.
I wish you could sit at my table with me so I could tell you all the small things you would never believe.
