Spring Meditation

I went for a walk
It was a sunny spring day
The warmth from the sun
Made me feel at ease
There was a cool wind blowing
All around me
It was very refreshing
I stepped into
The enchanted woods
Mighty oak trees
Towered above me
I walked past maple trees
Birds sang together in harmony
Such sweet melodies
I spied toads
Running under fallen tree limbs
A lone bunny raced past me
The trees were so abundant
And so densely packed together
They made a green canopy
I took a nap
While sitting under a tree
I dreamed of Eden
When God walked with man
I contemplated
The tree Christ hung on
When He alone paid the price
For our sins
I love spending time
In nature
It is good
For my mental health
I walked back home
This was a day
I will not forget
