Attempts at Poetry - 3. To Hike
So, we were out enjoying the nice weather at the park and the hiking trails reminded me of when I used to hike with my day. So, here's my first poem for the April is Poetry month.
To Hike
To tread over earth
moss, rocks, shells
to admire the trees
rough bark, changing leaves
To feel the breeze
God's breath, gentle, kind
To taste rain,
Tears of God, soothing, sweet
To climb steep rocks
straight, jagged, sharp
To feel the pain
pounding heart, cuts, stiff limbs
To rest by river's edge
rushing rapids, quiet pools
To hear rustling leaves
squirrels, birds, rabbits
To sit on a mountain
peace, isolation, tranquility
To view a valley
tiny, desolate, distant
To feel awakened
alive, exhilarated
To leave
tired, fulfilled.
Here's hoping I manage to remember to try to do the one-a-day poem for the National Poetry Month thing! :) If nothing else, at least I did one...
