The sun is red, your favorite color. The lovers in the front hold hands and tenderly gaze at one another. The car rumbles on down the rough dirt roads of a country side.
You break from the woods, your eyes are caught by a magnificent beauty that hangs in the sky of shimmering color. The car slows, the field is gold, you feel the world begin to stop. The music fades, all is swept away. Until time begins again.
Then the song changes, just like the mood. It no longer swings in a fast beat. You tap your foot instead, letting the slowness ease your mind. You let it take over. Lean your head against the door. Close your eyes as the sunset disappears over the edge. And you finish your drive down the country road.
You step out of that now dirt covered car. You look at your surroundings, feeling changed in a small way. You seem to notice more, take life less for granite. You casually walk up your steps to the front door. Letting everything sink in.
Sunsets, lovers, party's, feelings, vintage clothes.
Take a deep breathe. Let life take its tole. Follow the flow.
Then take another drive.
