Peaceful Reminders

Appalachian trails in the new morning’s dawn
This path today takes me past a haven for dear
My eyes have a treat as they witness a fawn
While my feet step quietly, for her to not hear

My heart, it has stopped, or so it now seems
As the beauty of nature surrounds here, my eyes
For awake I am, yet, it all plays like a dream
As peace finds my heart and my inner self sighs
