end of the day

end of the day

By Jente Housen

i want you to look up

notice the patterns in the leaves

become one with the freedom of the birds

hear the music hidden in a summer breeze

the joy of an orange peeled by your grandmother

smell the freshly cut grass that stains the knees of the kid down the road

the sun lighting up your freckles, like droplets on your cheeks

signalling the last rainfall of the summer

exhaling into your evening
