Clarity?

I let the dogs out and I stand on the deck.  The air is warm and wraps around me like a big, southern hug.  I watch the flashing lights gliding across the yard.  The fireflies are magical.  I gaze at the charcoal colored sky and imagine the stars falling on me like snow.  I am in another world, another space, and another time.  I am calm and appreciate my being.  Moments like this shape who I am and who I will be.  I inhale deeply and step inside the house exhaling slowly.  Happiness.
