Up But Down-Part3

Up but down…part-3

In my errand for a fill of
Hilly air, I can’t forget its 
Kicking present, its woes and ills
Carrying that down-to- earth ache

To sooth which I run up and down
While the days worryless and dour
Don’t dither in their flow. And I
Turn to musing on these hills

Long after my bus had belted
Down its narrow, winding slopes
Tearing away its dry and shy
But superbly high-flying air

You just absorbed all the beauty scenery around you! I too can get caught up in the simplicity of such simple things! This bus ride took me to a similar area here called Fort Ancient...long steep and oft dangerous winding roads! Nice write and glad I revisited it! Looking 4 more work of yours, Jag...U must be busy with family...Hope all is well! :) gwendolen
