A few pics from today, I enjoyed playing around and editing these...

I spent most of the day in the forest when the weather cleared today, there is nothing better than taking home the smell of the pine, peace of the trees swaying and the birds singing...being whole...

Spindly sculpture of nature

bristled of a spikey design

on the edge of the murky waters

as the quagmire allows now sublime.

Fingers outstretched from the core

reaching up to the air from land

its life blood is gone, fossil of stone

knobby knuckles pull in the hand.

Home of the insects that abound

fortress from hostile attack

for insects and mice

home is the chamber of cracks.

Guardians are the turtles and badgers

they watch transformations of treasure

the world of the swamp portrays a life

of change that is hard to measure.

Anchored roots embrace scraggy bedrock

holding the old castle in place

ensuring its eternal existence

in this native organic space.

Poem titled Castle of the Swamp

Forest Bathing…Part 2

“Go deeper, Sink into this blessed water With your achy bones And weary mind, Enter into the depths Of your own soul, Allowing the cleansing

[bigfootmountain]

“Are you ever out walking or squatching and think, look where I am right now?

You can’t believe your life allowed you to be here or how?

Just stare at the trees and think oh my god...

How can this be?

That all of this is here, in front of me

Stop and look the trail and listen,

just listen to what the forest is trying to tell you

Walk along the path and just be

There is no work needed here and everything is free

Freedom from those places you call home work or school

The animals don’t know anything about that, they wouldn’t believe it’s real

They complete the circle of life as they should

They don’t want the materialistic things we would

And just imagine life with out those snares, it could be so good

We could leave it all behind and join Bigfoot in the forest

And then our human song could once again be apart of nature’s chorus...”

I Brake For Trails…

The best part about my day is when I’m enjoying my morning cup of coffee and planning out where to go each day. Everyday is a new adventure
