Now This Is the Life

With a sequined glimmer afternoon sun shimmered down across the meadow. A bright light of gold and yellow. Theres a bright light inside of me. This decisions tough but it's one worth deciding. As I pass between two pines stepping onto open ground I stop where the trail starts and I hear familiar sounds. The emerald arms of the forest embrace me. This is where I find serenity and safety. I slowly study the field. The beauty of this forest is something so real! I cannot determine the classification of these leaves. In every direction theres different shades of green. Its a sight unseen. Undetected by the human eyes. This sort of feeling comes from deep inside. I've got an uncanny feeling that I'm not alone. I come across a stream that is dry as bone. I'm repressing my fears so I can carry out my plan. Continue moving foreward into uncharted land. Out in the wilderness theres predators and prey. I focus my mind and leave behind no mistakes. It's more rewarding in the final hours. As I stray deeper the song grows louder. It's natures power that first lead me on this journey. It's kind of a trip how the world is always turning. I can make out cataracts of brilliant colors. I take a seat on a nearby tree stump. This expedition could last three months, Or i could be home by midnight!
