Back to Basics by Constance “SquirrelFriend” Helton
A hectic pace is much the norm
Daily facing every storm
Stressed, alone, we venture forth
To find just what our lives are worth
Seeking solace far away
From modern chaos come what may
Beneath the trees
A gentle breeze
Birdsong, flowers, squirrels too
Pause to gaze on a majestic view
Time alone away from strife
Helps remind us what’s important – Life
