I have so much space
out here in the quiet country.
Over ten acres of our own woods
to walk, to explore, to learn.
Sometimes during my walks,
I just stop and contemplate
the blessings of this experience.
Each season provides a reason
to get outside and love this place.
I'm learning to listen better.
Not just to our loyal birds,
that I truly love,
but also listening to the quiet.
A privileged pleasure
that I always treasure.
I promise to take care of this space
and to share what I learn with grace,
until I can no longer roam,
and I'm brought back home;
returned to my starting place.
