Enlightenment

 

at the edge of woods:

wind restless

blades of grass shivering green

ferns taller than truths

and trees pawing with thirst –

 

an evening of escaping sun

farewells today’s journey

of taste and smell.

Your poem reminded me of walks up on our Ridgeway.

Thank you for taking me on your journey of poetic words.

Jenny.

Merci, Jenny. Such peace in Nature, eh? I am not able to walk very far these days, but my mind remembers so many times in the woods.
