Therapy

As I walk in the woods, the worries melt off my shoulders. My jaw softens. My hands unclench, unfurl like the wings of the wild geese that beat the wind. March 11, 2018

You show us how to collect the poems from the wings of the wild geese beating the wind ... not satisfied with the geese only ...the inevitable 'wild' reinforces the truth ... what a beauty ...

Indeedy, Agnes, I regularly take a route to town that takes me half an hour longer, just to get away from traffic, and it improves my mood immeasurably. I shall accompany you in my mind. Viv x
