Early morning filled

wind roaring through the trees

two does stood together

ignoring the surroundings

enjoying fresh air and green grass

Once again, life filled with sound

A sound track to the day

a play list affecting mood

supporting concentration and thought

healing from injuries

unknown, unrecognized, unconsidered

Slowly it crept

becoming softer

hardly noticed

time flowed on

silence grew unnoticed

What is heard is not

what is understood

Sounds a jumbled salad,

tossed at random

ingredients difficult to distinguish

It has been 10 months

hiking and walking 4 to 6

days a week to regain my strength

a difficult journey to recovery.

Goals were needed to succeed.
