I like the positive healing energy in this poem, the determination to not succumb to a darkness, also the way the line lengths are so natural - they do not have to fit into a particular schematic or regime - which enhances that theme of being free in the natural world. Brilliant!

I inhale the countryside for 3 to 4 hours every single day, its been put there for us to enjoy. Enjoyed your poem and the musical accompaniment. A breath of fresh air in stormy times.

How fortunate that you recognize your blessing Keith. We often take the familiar for granted. I live only a few blocks from a wooded trail, but drive to a gym to walk on a treadmill. The irony isn’t lost on me. Awareness is the first step to change.

Vautaw,
How true. I am fortunate to live in a rural setting so this therapy is always available and it is a blessing indeed. A poem for thought in a hectic and fearful world.
Keith

Thank you Jordyn. I wonder how many would be healed if doctors prescribed an hour a day in nature!
