The tree lined country road barely has two lanes <br />The serene path narrows and dips straight ahead <br />Inviting everyone with a silence that has no name <br />Captivated by nature’s beauty… my inner spirit is led <br /> <br />Sunbeams filters through branches that are interlocked <br />The glorious canopy spills patches of light on gravel <br />A breeze flutters through lush leaves… heat is blocked <br />Carefree visitors are protected as they leisurely travel <br /> <br />The peaceful scene is one that will forever remain <br />In memories that hold the splendor of quieter days <br />Today cars race on the highway… speed is maintained <br />The intense glare upon the pavement directs the way<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-country-road/
