Distant Memories

Beckoning across barren fields Nature hurls at me its haunting call Luring me for a walk in the woods My proclivity to step into its timelessness Effervescent with every nuance of color Spirited sounds of birds and critters Sunlight shining through each aperture Tugging at romantic imagination Reminded of a distant saga of english knights Blessed with zealous temerity and Courage flowing through their veins Valor infused through their marrow As their prominence does attest In the ambient nobility of these woods AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on November 2, 2018 for contest EIGHT WORD CHALLENGE 9 sponsored by JOHN HAMILTON - RANKED 1ST
