Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.
John Muir (1838-1914) was an Scottish-born, American naturalist. He was one of America’s earliest advocates for wilderness preservation, and he has been referred to as the “Father of National Parks.” His unwavering support and influence led to the establishment of Yosemite National Park.

Waking from my sleep on a dark, chilly day
Preparing for another early morning to play
Pulling on my warm jacket and stocking cap
Heading out the door without need of a map
Making this early morning journey once again
Walking down a street where many have been
Moving hurriedly while struggling with numbing, frigid air
Searching a pocket to discover my gloves are not a pair
Being discovered, a nervous rabbit hops away
Seeing me, he certainly doesn’t desire to play
Crossing the street, a black cat stares back
Slithering away, she doesn’t cross my path
Freezing my face, the frosty air feels bitterly cold
Hurrying along with a pace that is rapid and bold
