At Home, Resting After a Sweet Morning Trek

At Home, Resting After A Sweet Morning Trek Cool and sweet Laced with gentle streams The treasure of forested hills Forest sighs, and afternoon delight 'neath welcoming sky. Souls they touch Hearts they enthrall Day or night Embrace this spirit Soothe with that colorful treasure O giant that awaits the dawn Welcome this eager friend. R.J. Lindley, Sept 03-1973 ( After A Much Needed Visit )

'Tis the simple things that spin the heart ... and rest the spirit! Lovely write, Roberto - I needed this!

Thank you my friend. A positive poem from 48 years ago. Back when my proclivity to seek the deep forest for its many treasures, its beauty, its solitude- and its blessed relief was at its apex. And the blessing was that it never failed me. I being a wild mustang back then -managed to run into all kinds of troubles, woes, and conflicting scenarios. This poem represents one of those times immense relief came....God bless...
