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......

Corinne Curcio Date: 8/3/2009 9:40:00 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. Login to Reply
