THE WILDERNESS

I sit by the camp fire and listen to all the different sounds

As the leaves were falling down to the ground

The stars were shinning and filled the sky

Then I heard the dear as it was walking by

The crackling sounds were coming from the fire

Knowing it was getting late and becoming tired

The pine needles will make a soft bed where I will lye

And think of my lost friend and begin to cry

A wolf was watching and came over to my side

Staring into his golden eyes I could hear him asking why

Now the sun was starting to peak over the hills

The camp fire went out and in the air there was a little chill

I know it was time for me to leave

Because the road sign read this area wasn’t a place to be

Walking down the road my shoes would make a crunching sound

For there wasn’t a concrete road to be found

The time went by as I made it to a small town

As I would look at their faces you could see them start to frown

At the edge of the town I heard a soft sound

Telling me that this was sacred grown

So as this day is now coming to the end

I think of how this venture started when it first began
