![]() The Superior WalkA Poem by Phillip Francis
The wind whispers softly on a crisp winter night.
Darkness fills the heavens. In the distance are the faint sounds of the masses pushing their way home. The hustle is ending. Sullenness is just beginning. As I carelessly walk the wooden path, I take solace in the tranquility that surrounds me. With a deep breath, I inhale the cool air. I savor the chill as it sharply penetrates my lungs. This isolation comforts me. Each step resonates throughout my surrounding. The rhythm of this hike becomes the score of my expedition. I'm intoxicated by the outdoors. My mind and soul finally at ease. This instance, is gratifying. I've been serenaded by this abominable setting.
