On the horizon.

"I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake.
The great affair is to move."
— Robert Louis Stevenson
 ------------------
Empty boxes and suitcases are swirling 
around my head and my room
An adventure out of the country 
looms just days away
and a move not far around the corner
from that return flight home...
And when anxiety takes flight
I remind myself that all of life is truly
an adventure, beauty hidden
even in routine 
so I talk the hurricane in my chest
to calm its swirling winds
and simply breathe it all in

but wouldn't a stay in this treehouse 
also calm your heart?
