Wild, Not Wasteful by Ishah Broad

I should do this more often

Just take myself off to wild places

Soothe my soul

With the delights of the land

I know why

This is meaningful

Not wasteful

To be close to wildness

Hear the river water

As it rushes and tumbles along

Listen to the branches as they bend and sway

An opportunity to see

To understand

To follow The Way
