A Walk Through the Forest

A walk through the forest
to clear the mind
leaving life’s troubles
in the past, far behind

Living in the moment
the here the now
small things to worry about
wiping sweat from your brow

With Wind in hair and Sun on face
Nature warms the heart
with God’s good grace

The bird’s sweet songs
fall on listening ears
simple things in life
that help us through the years

Wildflower fragrances
along trickling streams
foggy moisture-laden meadows
penetrating Sunbeams

Take a walk through the forest
and you will find
connecting with Nature
will give a clear mind
