The heat seeped into my tired muscles, bathing them in a soothing and healing glow.  I let the heat wash over me in waves, as I relaxed my tense shoulders, and slowed my breathing.  The way the heat flushes my body, sending the blood to my face, it is almost like a sexual charge.

I looked to the right, at a vast field.  A breeze was coming from that field, and gently touching the ridge where I waited. The sky was a pure blue, and sunlight lit the field up.  A grove of sunflowers turned their head towards the sky, and basked in it's brilliance.  

I am ALIVE!

I will go home now, and dive in the pool,

letting it's cool water rejuvinate me.
