Walking With Redwoods Premiere Contest Winner

On hallowed ground this path pervades As if by fate, alone I tread To hear the whispered serenades Of redwood song through timeless threads From long forgotten centuries Melodic echoes through the mist A haunting hint of reverie Perhaps a plea to coexist If by chance you amble through These auburn temples fringed with grace A thoughtful pause - your cares adieu The healing magic of this place 25 Jun 2014
