December walk
















it’s the middle of December
but yesterday was a November
day

and as I walked
under oak trees
bare

i became aware
of yellows, browns,
rusts
and balmy gusts

much too warm for freezing

a melody ran through my head
and instead of Christmas carols
i hummed an old John Denver tune

You know the one…

“you fill up my senses…
like a night in the forest
like the mountains in springtime
like a walk in the rain……..”

midday
somewhere along the trail

i was filled
