Imagine walking into a forest full of pine and other trees
They are all colors and sizes

As you stop amongst the trees, all you can hear is the deep silence
and the sound of your boots as you walk along on the dirt path

A slight cool breeze rustles through the trees moving the limbs
as the branches sway back and forth to the rhythm of the breeze

It is pleasant and calming
There is a scent of freshness in the air
It is invigorating

The sky is clear, and there is a glimmer of the sun gently hitting the path ahead
As you look up through the trees, the sun seems to shimmer

You keep walking
At the end of the path, is a small log cabin with a fire burning in the fireplace
waiting for its owner to return
You can smell something baking in the oven
A bit of smoke leaves the chimney
A dog is quietly sleeping on the porch
A cat is busy chasing bugs in the yard
Wildflowers are everywhere
All shapes and colors
It’s a peaceful day
Summer
