Come Walk With Me

Come, walk in the spring's budding forest with me, 
Enraptured by musical sounds of the wild, 
Where life dwells unhindered and gracefully free. 

For children of nature, we happen to be,
Made open and free as an innocent child…
Come, walk in the spring's budding forest with me,

Enthralled with the wonder of earth’s majesty,
Abandoned with nature where God’s love has smiled,
Where life dwells unhindered and gracefully free.

Our worldly, dark troubles will magically flee,
Erasing the sorrowful memories filed…
Come, walk in the spring's budding forest with me,

Tranquility flows everywhere peacefully
With nature's deep fragrance, sweet-scented and mild,
Where life dwells unhindered and gracefully free.

Absorbing the essence of Earth's modesty,
With stillness and beauty of nature compiled,
Come, walk in the spring's budding forest with me,
Where life dwells unhindered and gracefully free.

Sandra, your Villanelle is a wonderful "walk through the beautiful forest." That's how I felt after I read it. "Absorbing the essence of Earth's modesty..." - what a thought-provoking phrase! A Fav for me. Congratulations on your win on Mile 24 of my 2019 Poetry Marathon Contest. Only 3 contests to go before the final! ~Mark
