A Woodland Path
" a woodland path in the dappled sun,
hushed and quiet."
Under a leafy canopy I walk,
along the familiar wooded trail.
Pine needles crunch beneath my feet.
Birds take flight, justly annoyed.
Communing with nature
on this warm, spring morn,
peace fills my soul.
I walk on,
loving
life.
Life,
hectic,
confusing,
stressful at times.
A walk in the woods
is my peace and comfort,
reminding me what is real
and what is important in life.
Here mind, heart and soul come together
and together they find a clarity.
