Carpeting brown beneath canopy green,
Layer on layer so spongy and plush
That the sole of my shoe makes no
sound
As I stroll through the stand,
So endearing, I dare not to rush.
Afraid I may miss the sweet laughter
of robins
Proclaiming their conquest
Pulled fresh from the earth.
I seek out their nesting place
every springtime,
Amazed and bewitched at nature's
rebirth.
But the pine is a constant.
It always endures.
With roots running deeper than diamond
mines.
So blissful to saunter,
Admiring the view,
In the shade of the sheltering
pines.
