Dark Shadows

I walk through the scent of pine There is no sign Green fern are blowing in the wind Years, I can’t rescind The heat is like a thick wall I try not to fall I reach for the cool shade under trees In a cascade of memories I touch the bark, looking at detail to see The moment frees me In dark shadows, I pretend Time is my friend Heidi Sands 6/28/21

It seems like time is our friend when we get in such a lovely described area but time marches on doesn't stand still for anyone but God. Thanks for your visit to my page. Sara

Sometimes when we are alone we feel very alone. There is a feeling of oneness with nature. There is a clean and pure peace that surrounds you. It's where I belong. Good Stuff. God Bless, JB
