Let's Walk

Let's Walk

Let's walk

that road

with so many

twists and curves,

maybe go down

a side path

or two.

Look! There's a meadow

where, by the brook,

we can dally,

blow dandelion seeds

and make wishes.

Let's not travel

too fast.

Let's not miss

the bright yellow buttercups,

the chickadee's cheerful call

and the sweet wild blackberries.

But let's not linger

at a junction nor

at a dip in the road.

The path with all

the turns and hidden bends,

let's walk.
