Kedesia Robinson

Five Senses

The after taste of turkey sandwich

Hits me as I lay out 

My blanket onto the grass

My shoes are off and

I embrace my surroundings

All I see is green and brown

Grass, leaves and wood

This place offers me

Freedom, Expression and Serenity 

The sound of screaming kids

Draws near and 

Their soccer ball runs my way

 I reach out my

arm to touch and pick it up

I throw it back their way

and am thanked

They leave my secret retreat

And I’m again able to receive

What could only be deemed

 Unrealistic elsewhere 

Freedom, Expression and Serenity
