When I Dance

I dance around inside
a daydream

the shill of it
the dare of it

and I comply
until the awakening
and not remembering

the gist of it.

Something about a walk
in the forest---always
on my mind

fishing and hiking the hills
and streams
never alone
lost in my thoughts

love capturing me in the
afternoon of my desires.

Hello Sooz... Lately, I feel very nostalgic, and don't wish my words to be deliberately slurpy, because I do not wish it so, but want a reality in the message. So, thank you for your kind words. Rich

Makes me think of when I've been in the Drakensburg Mountains, hiking, I've been out for hours... lost too :-) Thanks Richard

Thank you very much, Shannon for your comment. "The woods are lovely dark and deep, and miles to go before I sleep." This excerpt by a famous USA poet was always an inspiration for my nature poems. Richard
