Walking through my neighborhood,
I see the kids at play,
And the parents chatting.
The young people walk their dogs,
And mow their lawns.
Moms and dads
Drop their children off for daycare.
Healthy people walk
Up and down the street,
Keeping fit and feeling good.
Kids on skateboards and bikes
Roam around, just enjoying
Being active and outside
In the cool winter air.
Men work on projects
In their driveways and garages.
Women tend to little ones,
Running errands
Or heading to work.
A peace falls on the place.
It is good to be alive.
