Taking A Breather   Leave a comment

Hiking the Italian Springs Trail (April, 2012) — Image by kenne

bushed

a trail cursed
and charmed
taking a breather
in solitude
and shade
alligator junipers
mountain pines
overlooking a
big sky pass
scrambling time
and seasons
whence we came
where we went
Redington road
to the plateau
beneath Mica
mountain summit
till you get there yourself
it remains our paradise
sharing our wanderlust
in this virtual world

(This hike was one of many I did with my old hiking buddy, Tom Markey, who passed awayAugust 17, 2022.)
