Around the streets of Kensington I travelled,
On a circular route of nine miles I was challenged by this feat,
My first walk travelling solo without my ramblers club,.
Bereft of their directions and presence to which I could retreat.
I walked the beautiful grounds of Kensington Gardens and its palace,
Princess Diana\'s memorial playground and fountain were a sight to behold,
Up to Hyde Park via Knightsbridge I walked invigorated by the fresh winter air,
Wellington Arch and Apsley House at Hyde Park, symbolic of great history of old.
The Serpentine\'s waters beckoned on my walk and its final stages,
I walked by the Albert Memorial as it glistened before my eye,
This nine mile Kensington Circular walk I completed,
Homeward bound I travelled elated with my spirits on a high.
