I like this poem very much as it portrays scenes of childhood and the situations of the present vividly as though I was there walking behind you. The poem also expressed a myriad thoughts and insights about nature (40 years ago) and nature as it is now, as well as the strength and comfort of true friendship. Thank you for writing this and may younger generations find the treasure that is in your poetry.
