오늘 아침, 나는 공원에 갔어요. 바람이 아주 강했어요.

작은 나무가 바람에 흔들렸어요. 나무가 조금 무서운 듯했어요. 나는 나무 옆에 앉아서 바람 소리를 들었어요.

그때, 나뭇잎 한 장이 내 머리 위로 떨어졌어요. 나는 웃었어요. 바람이 나뭇잎을 데리고 춤을 추고 있었어요.

나는 나무가 바람과 이야기를 하는 것 같았어요. 나무는 움직였지만 말은 못 했어요.

조용히 바람과 나무를 바라보면서 나는 편안해졌어요. 오늘은 아무 일도 안 하고 자연을 그냥 느꼈어요.

내일도 이 공원에 가서 바람과 나무를 다시 볼 거예요. 자연과 함께 쉬는 시간이 좋아요.
