Wild Relaxation

Under the spreading maple boughs

I spread my blanket and sit

Feeling weariness seep from my bones

And my hard pounding headache quit.



Sun-dappled grass happily plays

Tickling my tired old toes.

Scents of wild clover and wild mint

Waft over to delight my nose.



The wild roses are now in full bloom-

Pink petals accented with white ,

Wild canaries flit through the air

Like quick golden shafts of sunlight.



Many wildflowers dot the land,

Honey bees gather their nectar,

I feel like a young child again

Taking what Nature does offer.



The singing river beckons me

Yes, my bamboo pole is ready

The bobber floats on the surface

This relaxation is heady.
