I watch a thousand starlings paint dark shadows across the sky above me, the beautiful shapes and forms they create - nature is the artist, the birds are living art, flowing and meandering gracefully across the pale, orange canvas of this twilight sky.

I drink in the clean, fresh air; my city lungs aching as I greedily inhale all I can manage, slowly relaxing my whole body on the outbreath.

The knot in my chest slowly unravels for the first time that day and I sit in silence - The birds, the sky and I.
