She Chose the Path of Beauty
She chose to stay close to nature
and walk the path of beauty every day.
She finds her power walking
through the trees in quiet solitude
and has a big smile every time
she encounters wild animals.
She stops at the big fir tree
and connects with its ancient energy.
She wraps her arms around its wide trunk
and breathes in the clean air the plants release.
She bows her head to salute the trees
and dances along with the wind
sweeping through the lush forest.
She stops when she hears footsteps
and slows her breath down
to minimize the noise she makes.
To her delight mother deer appeared
with a baby wearing Bambi’s colors.
They chew fervently on fresh leaves
as she is standing quiet and still
like a statue until they pass by her.
She remembers on every walk
how wonderful it is to live here
where she can have these magic moments.
She is content to stay close to nature
and walk the path of beauty every day.
