Something

You are on a beach, alone

The wind with all of its warmth caresses your face

Your feet is soothing in the sand

Every particle has a purpose just for you

You glare out into the waters watching the sunset

The waves afar are dark, robust, and mysterious

But once they reach your feet they reserve a calmness

You can see your reflection

Hanging over your reflection are massive trees with beautifully shaped leaves

You turn around for a more satisfying view

The trees are so tall they excite your interest

You began to walk close to one of the trees which happens to be your favorite color

Something motivates you to begin climbing that tree

Only you know what that something is

The farther up you climb the more still the wind becomes

You get halfway up and look down

The waves have reached the bottom of the tree

You don’t fear, you keep climbing

Something is waiting for you at the top of the tree

Only you know what that something is

By time you reach the top, the sky has darkened

And it seems as if the stars were waiting for your arrival

Along with that something you also knew would be there

The day changed into night

The wind is standing still

The waves have followed your footsteps

Fear has left your being

And that something was well worth the climb

What was it?
