                                  Forest Morning Camping Relief 

Tall oak tree with mighty arms reaching up 

early morn darkness breaks with gentle ease 

Nature explodes overflowing its earthy cup 

awakening all even the sleepy 'ole trees 

  

Birds chirping well before this silent dawn 

small critters creeping all about 

To the beauty of this one must be drawn 

flowing stream filled with colorful rainbow trout 

  

Sun's early rays tingle my morning thirst 

gather the wood while looking around 

A breakfast fire and dark, hot coffee first 

Later exploration of this unknown forested ground 

  

Day is over , the Sun rests just over the hills 

a journey of all nature's treasures taken 

Happily found with nature lover's surprising thrills 

Precious memories gathered , joys never forsaken 

  

Weekend camping now a done deed 

plans for another long forested trek 

Pondered to simply sow the seed 

Of relief from life's exhausting little wreck....--Robert Lindley
