It is a grey day today
But Nature calls me.
I go to My River
And walk by its side.
My life so good,
Enhanced by love,
Love of life.
My River flows
Green and clear
By my side.
The swans float,
Float in harmony
With My River,
And with me.
The beauty of Nature
All around me.
The leaves of the trees
At my feet,
Their colours shine,
Shine up,
Shine up at me,
After falling,
Falling from the trees.
The trees almost naked,
Their branches bare.
But the willow,
The willow so green,
Shows it growth
And its power,
Power to survive.
As I walk with Nature
I know that all is well
As nature will restore,
Restore life in the trees
And the New Year will be,
Will be there in Nature’s life,
And in mine.

You got those long johns on now for that walk? Or in shirt sleeves?!
Still have short sleeve shirt on but with a coat over it now.

You are lucky you still have some my friend;
Not sure your grandchildren will find it so.
Soon, too soon, but after we’re gone - the end:
You have timed it right - enjoy and then go…
It will still be here for them, I am sure.

Thanks for Albatross reminder, Andy - one of my all time favorite instrumentals.
We had to travel a bit to get a good bit of nature to surround us but that is needed in the balance of life!
It surely is Rik, that balance of life is so important.

Best medicine there is. That and a single malt.
Such true words SC. Good to see you back on here.

Good write, Andy.
Nature keeps her bargain.
Thank you Jerry, Nature surely does.
Andy
Perfect read, thank you for walking and sharing!
My pleasure Dan.
