Poetic Asides Outdoors


The Outdoor World
(Quatern)

The outdoor world—it beckons me
With windy whispers to my ear.
The branches wave invitingly
With color change throughout the year.

The sunshine warms upon my face.
The outdoor world—it beckons me,
Adventure in another place,
To hiking trails and feeling free.

The robins call and they agree,
The air’s much better in the wild.
The outdoor world—it beckons me,
Reminding me of when a child.

But here I sit within my home,
Inside responsibility
And longing for the time to roam.
The outdoor world—it beckons me
