Not all those who wander are lost.'

Compose a poem inspired by this popular phrase.

Forests of The Mind

You may see the tall evergreens above you and the cloudy sky along with the snow-feathered mountains behind the trees


You may feel your feet's steps into the soft earthy soil and the chilly air


You may hear owls hooting and cooing and the soft flap of their feathered wings


You may taste fresh air on your tongue and humidity


You may smell the sharp, crisp scent of pine and fir needles, the rich and earthy aroma of damp soil and moss, and the sweet, resinous fragrance of tree sap


You have wandered out of your territory


Your brain says your lost


Your heart says otherwise


Your heart says that you know where you are going as energy shoots through your body from the ground beneath you


Almost as if you have a map in your mind


The sky starts to cry but it feels empowering to you, your hair getting soaked


You aren't lost, you are where you're meant to be
