The Natural Draw

The Natural Draw

August 26, 2018 0 By Alan Evans

The desk is my home
The screen is my B&C
But my heart wants to roam
I need to be out of the city

This is life as we know it
Some of us were given a great chance
There is pressure not to blow it
My role seems perfect at first glance

The mountains are always calling
But wealth is surely ahead
Down the rabbit hole I am falling
Is this dream only in my head?

I know I am fortunate
I am on a path of least resistance
But my natural muse is importunate
I can no longer ignore its insistence

To quit is a bad word
To leave gives them questions
But now I am a free bird
Normalcy and security are my cessions

I know I have been drawn
It was out of my control
It was something I had to act on
I can feel the release of my soul

I am now living my truth
As a follower of Walden
Nature is my Phantom Toolbooth
My adventures will never be all done

-Alan
