I was looking for a place of solitude, a place where I could write, think, and enjoy a period of introspection. It was to have a great view, and to be a place of tranquility. Free from intrusions, noise, and judgment, a place I can stake out as my own slice of God's Universe and call my own, in a sense.
Observing from afar, I see Canadian geese flying in an arrow formation in the direction of their destination, and a deer swimming across the river for refreshment. In the distance, I hear the celebration from a wedding at an inn at a tourist spot, its participants unaware of the casual observer and faux guest from afar, wishing the couple Godspeed and good fortune. As I heard the music flow over the river to me, I wonder what life lay in store for the two and what will become of them.
Visitors hiking by, lovers strolling, and groups on bikes riding by, probably think in passing of the stranger by himself looking at the horizon, but I've long ago left the notion to be part of the crowd. I nod and smile as they pass as they do the same, compatriots in sharing the same peace and freedom.
Butter churned skies appear as the sun draws to a close, it's soon time to go back into the other world. As I reflect upon it, I feel refreshed and ready for the coming night, whatever may come.
