​​No restrictions as to where
do it here
do it there

Only requirement
you show up
moving legs and feet

____

Choose the journey as you go
pacing fast
sauntering slow

Accompanied by
symphonic flow
of fields or trees or street

____

You are master of this time
every reaching step sublime
under your control

You can plan or wander free
following what is meant to be 
guided by your soul

____

Oh the thoughts
plethoric thoughts
attached to a day of stride

Revelations
of every type
which generally hide inside

____

Appear a bench
do have a seat
contemplation calls

And peace and peace
and further peace
within your being falls

____

Price of admission
only your time
you and you alone

Incredible gift
anywhere we may be
just go without the phone

What a wonderfully thoughtful ode to walking! When I take a walk, I always watch for birds; they can be familiar or unusual, each one is a joy to watch. Yes, walking is an "incredible gift". Thanks and happy walking to you!

You are so right, Cynthia, walking is one of my very favorite "gifts".
It is such a healthy hobby/exercise, can be done almost anywhere, acquaints us with our beautiful world and sometimes makes us happier..
In Bill's case-it gives him words for us to enjoy! Sooooooooo-a Big Cheer for Walking!!

Bill, you are reminding me that I still need to be walking. But when it's so COLD outside, I prefer the cozy fireside. My joints are telling me that you are right about walking!! Hope you are having a lovely day and I enjoyed this very much.
