On an Afternoon Walk ~ Stroll, Look and Listen

With a friend

I strolled in the late summer sun

along a winding path, 

wind tousling our hair.


We leaned against the  railings watching 

mallard ducks and common loons lining the shore; listened to geese squabbling

on this election day.


As I walk, I wonder: Do those geese have their own political agendas or do they just squabble, flap their wings, waggle their long necks and peck at each other ~


they miss out on the colours 

that change and shimmer

in the winds of autumn as they

ready to take wing and fly.


“Look deep into nature and you will understand everything better. ”
