Alexis Y. Poet Rhyme

Seeking Serenity By a Lovely Oak

As I take stroll in the meadow.
I seek serenity by a lovely oak tree .
It is by far my most cherished place.
I love the sun shining on my face. 
When I’m alone basking in nature I’m free.

The fresh air invigorates all my senses.
All my worries and doubts seems to vanish.
I love the stillness that I find there.
And I don't dwell on the chaos everywhere.
My weary soul is free from anguish.
