Student Life | Issue 40

The sun brushes it’s tender warmth over me.
Inhaling the smell of freshly cut grass,
My sense of confinement flies away.
With the birds tweeting merrily,
Who could not be joyful this day?
Later, I turn pages of unread books,
skim through mountains of my imagination and
absorb knowledge intermingled
with my friend’s wit.
Time flies by with enjoyment,
Friendship, laughter,
not boredom.
Boredom wasn’t invited into our house,
The first,
Nor the second week at home.
When my cat dreams
she can be wherever she wants to be:
Chasing mice across our garden
Purring softly in front of a fireplace
Exploring the wilderness of our world
But right now,
in this moment,
Purring next to me,
She’s completely content.
