In My Mind
" A woodland path in the dappled sun, hushed and quiet."
by a Rambling Poet
In my mind I can wander down the path
Feel the lovely peace of evening tide
Escape the walls that hold me fast
And with nature for a time abide
I always loved to walk at sundown
Feeling the passing of the day
How I long to hear the bird songs
and watch the squirrels at play
My body has betrayed me now
And can no longer take me there
But the path is vivid in my mind
And for that moment I have no care
For the" Woodland Path" contest
Barbara Gorelick 6/8/11
