Hiking In the Universe

HIKING IN THE UNIVERSE

We hiked to Geo-City, deep in the forest....
And found treasures of sparkling geodes,
Appearing like magic! ....then, climbing, brought
Them to their rightful place in the universe,
At the foot of the mammoth Eagles Nest...
Where the Eagle sleeps, 

                              where I dream......

Patti Masterman August 3, 2009 at 8:20 PM I love to write poems about true things. This is a beautiful story. Thank you for commenting on my first poem here. It made me feel very welcome. cheers Patti

Corinne Curcio August 3, 2009 at 9:40 AM How wonderful. I like the idea of being the only one who knows about treasures. I feel that way when I sit on my balcony on the 14th floor, or in my little bit of woods, and see a rainbow, or a Peregrine Falcon fly by, and think that no one else sees this but me. Again, well done Jim.
