My Fondest Memory

MY FONDEST MEMORY
                               
Walking and being still
All present I can feel
Awakened by the quiet sound
Of loves beauty all around


Shadowed path of filtering rays
Sunlight shining on the day
Wispy breezes gently blow
A soft wind mild and mellow

Heavens bursting of brilliant blue
Cotton ball clouds gliding through
The sky a feast for my sight
For my heart its sheer delight

River stream waters roll
Rippling, tricking sounds unfold
A large flat rock offers a rest
To relish nature at it’s best

The sound of silence has it’s song
A melody so sweet and strong
Lying on the rock in the sun
I listen to my companion

After a while it’s time to go
I open my eyes to quite a show
A joyful, colorful, endless shower
A hill of awakened wildflowers

Such tenderness creates a tear
A sense of wonder precious and dear
Thankful for this mornings foray
I’m satisfied and on my way

Venture this pulsing vibrant valley
Where life’s love song has no finale
My favorite Hermosa trail
Never fails to lift beauty’s veil

                                                                                               

                                                                                                   8-10-16
