“The Oasis”
Drudging through with heavy legs
Dodging the sediment aimed at his eyes
His mind became his worst enemy
Ahead, he saw a sign of hope
Followed by a voice
She immediately comforted him
“Welcome to the Oasis”, she said
“Everything you need is here.”
And it was.
Food, water, a place to cleanse
A cozy little spot to rest
A smile came over his previously weary face
At dusk, with gratitude for this beautiful place.
He was able to carry on
