Eva’s Byte #258: The Grass is Greener
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home. (“Green Green Grass of Home”; Tom Jones, 1966)
The search for greener pastures ends in our own back yard.
Rise and shine! During my morning workout on the elliptical trainer overlooking the view offered by an oversized, double-hung window, I discovered the grass is greener on the other side—in my own back yard.
I’ll be on the lookout for more signs of spring in my back yard throughout the days to come: bulbs blooming, trees budding, and birds chirping. Symbolizing renewal and rebirth, hope springs eternal, despite the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since all of Rhode Island’s state parks, beaches, and campgrouds are officially closed until further notice, I’ve grown to appreciate my immediate surroundings. Upping the ante of exercise during my state’s strict stay-at-home order, I’ve now been taking walks to stave off writer’s butt.
It’s a pleasure to amble along the paved pathways on the sprawling, manicured grounds of my complex. This secluded oasis offers respite from the far-reaching effects of a world crisis.
As for writing, I continue to progress in my Contemporary WIP, winding down chapter 45.
During spring’s forward march, I intend to proceed walking where the grass is greener, in my own back yard. Health benefits aside, I’ll soon be able to see and smell the roses. And, during allergy season, that’s nothing to sneeze at.
If you’ve read this far, may hope spring eternal.
