"opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life<br /> seems most challenging." - Joseph Campbell


Pine Needles hit the top of the tent like rain drops

The down of my sleeping bag balled at my feet

Unzipping my lungs

Getting the first breath of cold air

Beads of dew zig zag their way down the nylon

The embrace of my bag pleads me to stay

Just lay the day away in bliss


The author's comments:

When writing this I really thought back to my times camping and how much I enjoyed waking on backpacking trips and not wanting to leave my sleeping bag. For edits I titled the pieces and add a few lines to try and fully tell this specific vignette.
