A Walk in the Valley





Can you walk in the valley with the trees and the rain

Throw off your armor, lay down your pain

The trails up ahead, some of lilly, some moss

Will lead you to places with a wink and a toss

Pause in the sunshine that breaks thru the trees

Warm for a moment, bend down to your knees

And listen to the rain drops, the crisp smell of dew

The moment will take you from there this is true

But return to the valley with the trees and the rain

And listen for a new moment to follow again

Then walk in that moment aware and at ease

Knowing all trails return to the trees

In the valley of rain, armor thrown, on your knees

This poem and this valley is beautiful.
Is this a real valley or an invented landscape?

invented for the poem

I really enjoyed it! I find so many poems that people post on this site to be super-depressing or morbid so it's nice to see something more uplifting for a change lol.
