Walking Down to Camp – v2

Through the woods,

dense around me

walking to the camp

A joy in the solitude, footsteps

on the soft dirt road,

a verdant garden,

forever damp in shadow

lush woods, forest, with

the scent of pine, of decay,

of growing plants, ripe berries

of bubbling brook,

green and brown forest

lost in thought,

in the present captive
