Rating: 4.9

On a beautiful afternoon, crisp and sunny
I set out on a trek to the nearby woods
Except my camera, intentionally picked up
I did not carry with me any other goods

A very good and delightful poem. A free and happy trek into the forest turned out to be frightful. In the end though all was well even the funny monkey maybe taking a selfie. So funny and sweet! Congrats on your 400th poem. Well done Valsa.

If I were blind, I'd solicit your words to let me see the world! They are as beautiful as the nature you brilliantly describe! I wish I could close my eyes and read your works! ! ! thank you Sister

There is a largeness of experience in this poem which makes it symbolie the whole of life. It could be an allegory of the arc of life, from a quiet beginning through the discoveries over time to the exhaustion of the end. Throughout I sensed an impatience to encompass as much experience as possible, but that proves to be so exhausting you slip. into sleep. I thought this was going to be a romantic walk in nature; but what you wrote is far more ambiguous and unpredictable that that formula. Your poem takes surprising paths and never settles down to mere comfort. It's much too alive with varied possibilities to settle for comfort.

Beautiful poem. I felt I was with you on every step of the way. Being a walker I specially enjoyed the scenes and unexpected events that every trekker comes to face every now and then. Your poem brought it all to life.

Beautifully written. So, vivid. I felt I could reach out and pick one of the flowers by the tree.

Adventure in the forest wonderfully described. Venture into the unknown and thump in the heart when it is dark are clearly felt by one who reads. Enjoyed the poem from my heart.

when I was in Kashmir inside a forest of Srinagar, cool climate and apple trees and other herbs made me a heavenly feel

Wow..Wonderful experience. I didnt take my eyes from screen till I finished reading your poem till end. Curiosity stuck me till end. The fantastic lines can never be forgotten... Alas! It was my camera which I knew I could never recover By looking so intently I wonder if he was trying to take a selfie Loved it. Beautiful presentation.

A beautiful description of a blended experience in a forest. I take it as an experience of life in this amazing forest, we call it a world. We are amused on one hand and get pains on the other, When grown enough we dream of rushing and running towards the eternal home where we expect an unending peace with no monkey to take any of our belongings.............A nice poem...........10. | Delete this message
