The Wilderness Is Always Beautiful

The wilderness is always beautiful, whenever one stumbles upon it and everywhere one looks, it's blissful to spend an entire afternoon exploring it! Sit by that small pond loved by skylarks and observe frogs leaping while a golden retriever watches them and barks, and pulling them out of the murky water, color mud, he holds them in his mouth savoring warmblood! Walk with an unhurried pace, don't miss a flock of hens looking for mates along those paths that hide surprises, a small finding can be thrilling and significant, make a note of it on your short travels; and while picking up yellow or red poppies, think how to desiccate them and place them neatly between the pages of a poetry book you bought at Barnes & Noble that you have displayed elegantly... only outside noises can distract you from reading more, let the telephone ring, delight in the words you adore! The wilderness is always beautiful when seeing with curious eyes while your interest will increase and your enthusiasm grows even those Palm Warblers are tuneful that the boy-scouts surely can please! The wilderness is always beautiful, its forests are the safe home of the Gray Jays and of other birds with boundless freedoms; listen to their melodies so cheerful! Written on 12/10/2020
