I count the days of each season of Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn.
It reminds me of the maple tree that changes its colorful hues of green, red, orange and yellow.
It is a long road ahead, but still, I tread on with anticipation of undiscovered places of wonder.
Each step forward, there are roadblocks and detours that I must take.
Why do I take such a path, you might ask?
I want to travel to a destination that I could call my own sanctuary.
A special place that I seek, that surrounds me with green pastures and blue lakes undisturbed by humans.
It is a long road ahead, but still, I tread on with hope and kindness to this earth.
