The photos shown with this poem come from my private collection.  They desire to complement each stanza with nature’s voice.

Toes filled with white beach sand

Eastern horizon brightens

Morning’s sunrise glowing

Feeling life’s burdens lighten

Face stings with winter’s cold

Mountain ski run offers thrills

Freshest powder waiting

Energy flowing downhill

Sunset viewed from front porch

Peace adds footnote to this day

Tomorrow always dreams

Thoughts sketching blessed essay

Morning’s wilderness lake

Fisherman’s heart set to cast

Man and nature as one

Sunrise ascends to full mast

Moments with nature’s voice

Thankful for each treasured gift

Every day welcomes home

Spirit no longer adrift
