Nature Retreats In The Fall

Retreating in Nature is something indescribable.

 

The green leaves turning different shades of maroon and dark yellow

And the leaves descending to turn brittle and brown on the ground

 

The smell of fresh air unpolluted by society

The scent of cedar and fall roams freely through the air

 

The crunch of the hardened dead leaves under my shoe 

Stars so bright at night they could light up a pitch black room

 

A splash of cold lake water hitting your face 

The feeling of a towel drying your chilly damp body after a fun swim

 

The feeling of warm home cooked food after a long day out in God's creation

 

Devotionals at midnight and singing songs of praise

 This what makes it all worth the while

 

Listening to calming music while falling asleep in a cabin 

Not a care in the world, out in Nature

 

We wake up in the morning and get ready for another great day

I love Nature Retreats in the fall

This piece means a lot to me because i go on 2 church retreats every year and they are just a calm getaway from everything. I really think that this poem will mean a lot to the people who read it and they can all relate to it.
