Garden of the Gods

I walk the damp,dark path of oblivion. Not a sound in this forest interrupts me and my thoughts. Not a sight can take my mind from where I will it to go.Then there is light. This dark forest path opens to sheer cliffs,light, and happiness.The birds chirp their song of joy as they fly above me. A gentle breeze wraps me in its cool embrace. Here Im a book flying open. Here I am whole. As I continue my journey of life,I enter a bright jungle. Sunlight dapples everything. The sounds of crickets and tranquility fill the air. And still I continue my journey of life. Through the hard and happy times, this life is truly like the Garden of the Gods.
