A Note in Nature

I saw a blue jay today,
It came and said “hi” in it’s own curious way

I walked a trail today,
My youthful sense of wonder leading the exploration

I sat in nature today,
Listening to the meandering river carve it’s path

I cried my sorrow today,
Knowing our dreams had passed us by

I swung in a hammock today,
He pushed and I remembered our love

We made new plans today,
In hopes of creating new dreams from the ash

I sat in the sun today,
Letting my imagination build our new future.
