except which path to take
today I long for shadows
cool ravines
green all around
creeks calling me to cross
trails available, inviting a roam
blue sky, exposed only through leaves
dampness underfoot
silence except natural sounds
no voices
peace in a quiet place
beauty all around
the world, yes, the same world
only miles from home yet oh so far away
time to stop, stand still, evaluate
hear myself breathe
allow myself no decisions
except which path to take

Oooooh, I feel this today and every day! What a beautiful poem.
Dreamy! Makes me want to go get lost in nature.
I love the choice at the end!
Perfect poem to take us all away!
