Camping

Alone on a summers night. lanterns lite my way to write.
Children explore the woods in search of something good.
With nothing more than a flash light on. As the fire burns strong.
In the morning light The colds smolder slight.
Friends reminiscing of the past. Making new memories that will last.
Kids fishing and swimming. As momma fixes the trimmings.
Learning a little more about who you are laying under a canopy of stars.
Nature has a precious gift for you. If you choose to see it too.

The use of a couplet really brought your poem to life. The flow was great andd so was the poem.
