For Crystol's Hidden Acrostic Contest

On Google maps I find a place Some woods or public Access route* I don't plan but Let nature set the pace Everywhere I discover like hidden Loot Have I exhausted every lane Or can I enjoy Visiting them again I just like Ambling along Mind full of Nice poetic song A new hobby involving Trees and sky Gentle on the Soul and the hours just fly *British pronounce as "root"

I didnt know its a brit thing altho i pronounce root the same way. And i do have a bit of british and bit of everythn in my accent, which belongs nowhere but is just me, haha gosh! Looks like you can write in so many various ways which makes you not boring! And real! And worthy of a read! Pleasure visiting your page today! I will read a few more before i come back again to read hah

Haha I struggled so much with word choices I'm not sure I gathered any actual speed despite the title lol it was good to try a different form though and I think it's important to try and fill contests with human poetry :)

Oh I say it like root too. That's a thing in England. I have heard both pronunciations here in the states. This is a really nice write

Thanks Andrea - I thought the whole states said rowt! :) I think my idea might have been better than my execution in this one :) i appreciate you stopping by :) this form was trickier than I anticipated for getting distracted by the letters rather than powered forward x
