Hikes are more fun with family and friends, but had the chance to go on a solo hike this past weekend. I highly recommend both options.
Setting off from the trail head
destination unknown
Trees swaying in silence
But not walking alone
Looking at tree roots
listening to a stream
A gentle rain falls
blocking sunbeams
Taking an unexpected path
getting lost in the trees
A comfortable silence
A gentle cool breeze
Going deep into the woods
Going deeper into thought
Talking to ancestors
untying the knot
Legs are getting sore
the temperature warm
Sitting on a rock
a soul platform
Taking a sip of water
The sweetness on my tongue
Birds communicating in trees
A song has been sung
Feet getting heavy
Tripping on rocks
Tripping on thoughts
I love these walks
Paths wind on and on
Hoping this never ends
I keep on going
As the pathway bends
An open and shut book
