Traveler On the Backroads THE TALES OF LONG AGO kept drifting through my mind .

i could feel the words whispering on the wind

• rushing headlong past
  the canyon walls –
  .
  the rocks and stones
  speaking to me as the current
  bubbled over them
  .
  swirling around and between
  on their way downstream
  .
  THIS PLACE FELT ALIVE
  not just in my mind
• no, more than that;
  i could feel it in my soul –
  .
  from the shafts of light
  that reached down from
  the heavens above
  .
  shimmering in the mist
  rising up from the stream
  that flowed and wound
  through the canyon below
  .
  to the glistening walls
  that reached for the sky
  and the light above
  .
  both
  beautiful
  and enchanting
  haunting and
  magical
  .
  THIS PLACE HAD STORIES TO TELL
  and i felt it telling them to my soul … 🍁🍂💓
