As I walk along--my eyes looking down to see the beauty of the earth beneath my feet. What wonders there are found.
Walking the beach we see foot prints in the sand then along comes the tide that washes away those footprints. It leaves lovely patterns or just smooth sand and shells.
Walkways through the woods with leaves across our path that lead us to little streams of water where there are rocks and pebbles of all shapes and colors.
Park paths with unusual patterns in the concrete walks, bricks laid in interesting patterns,unusual grates so excess water may drain. Some are works of art.
We continue across blades of grass, areas of white clover, little blue flowers, dandelions, pine cones,seeds,pods from trees and bushes and if we look close we
see a lizard or a grasshopper checking things out.
I look up and see the blue sky above and there is another story of nature and the beauty of the clouds and sky that changes every minute.
'Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads'. Henry David Thoreau
