The Hidden Nature Trail
“Satisfied and alone … Serene and reflective”
I, satisfied and alone, proceed
to walk this trail- as I do each new Fall;
not sought by many, but for me, indeed
a spot, well hidden and loved best of all.
Serene and reflective, near the trees,
a brook glides over random, weathered stones.
With soothing murmurs, it flows on with ease
while nearby birds sing out in mellow tones.
And on the trees, a brush drips liquid gold
repainting leaves of summer's placid green;
in brilliant hues, now more intense and bold,
they sport their shawls of red and tangerine.
Reflective, serene, alone and satisfied-
on this old trail- my joys are amplified.
