Needed

 Praying

In the shower

It’s where

No distractions

Exist

Just the 

Scent of cucumbers

And the need

To expel

Negativity

And sing

Some John Denver

Picturing those

Country roads

That bring peace

Because they’re 

Rarely used

Or traveled

Loving the silence

I detested

For years

Until what 

Needed

Is more imperative

Than what 

Is desired

  1. It's lovely and more upbeat than usual. The reference to cucumbers stood out to me and enabled me to smell them, too. Fresh.
