Forest floor carpeted in lush green and daffodils
Trees creaking, bending, rustling in the Wind
Trails soaked after days of rain
Rushing creek, cold wet feet
Jubilant bird songs persist despite being muffled by strong winds, rushing creek
Mud imprinted evidence of different animals trekking the trails
Green continues to rise up the treeline: about 1/3
Geese make themselves known as they pass up above
Orange slug slowly feels its way over the rocks
Shoes rinsed clean by creeks, only to be thickened by mud again
Chi running: 85bpm
Winds escalate, lifting earthy, floral scents, swirling the trees
Trees breathe in the Wind
Dancing daffodils
Cracks of branches, falling trees
So much immense energy
(…Ending just in time: all trails closing due to safety with high winds knocking down trees and branches…)
