I like to take day hikes
out in nature under a blue sky
among the shades of green
and I need very little
water
a snack
a camera
a diary to write
I like to go in spring when all is new
in summer when it is hot and sunny
oh but fall is the best
with all the burnt orange and rust
even the decay is beautiful
winter all bundled up is nice too
oh I forgot I bring bird seed
for my friends the birds
so you see I need very little
I travel light
for all I need really is within me
and before me
and beneath my feet
