A Trip To the Woods

To the great outdoors
my grandparents love to go,
simply for the atmosphere it gives
like when they play Bingo.
I like to walk the trails, the mountains,
to get my wild nature fix.
They both have bad eyesight and can't quite comprehend
these crazy realistic graphics!

Without nature I think we become disconnected. There are some kids in the inner cities who have never experienced nature. Very sad.

I live in a place where cows outnumber people 7 - 1 and there's a lot of mountains. I can't imagine what it's like to live in a place like New York, never seeing so much as a mountain stream.
