The Journey Inward

After a long day at work,
where emotions ran high,
I needed a pick me up,
To feel fortified.

I knew just the place,
A favorite of mine,
The path by a stream,
Would be just divine.

I started my walk,
no airpod or phone,
I didn't want company,
Just to be all alone.

I took in the sounds,
and noticed the sights,
my heart rate came down,
my soul felt delight.

For miles I walked,
feeling peaceful and calm,
Being in nature,
Was my magic balm.

I went home to the pups,
and on with my night,
feeling grateful and happy,
and full of sweet light.
