The Beginning

I squint my eyes

Through the bright summer haze

My feet bare

As I walk along a dirt path

In a daze

To my right

I pass an old fountain

Pinpricks of fright

Crawl up my spine

Dry and cracked

The years

Have not been kind

To my left

A teasing glimpse

Of a scene

Bright and green

Light reflecting

From emerald tips

My heart flutters

It skips a beat

As my feet stop walking

I have reached the end

The end

That opens

To the beginning
