“There is a place out in the woods,
Where shadows bend and tall pines stand,
Far from the noise of iron and streets,
Untouched by any human hand…”
I am blessed every day to live in the woods. Yet, I know there are other places we go where our souls can be soothed and the energy of life, like sunlight through trees, beams into our hearts.
Sharing poetry and songs with friends is one such way to bring light and warmth into our souls. That’s why I look forward to the start of a monthly gathering of seniors for wellness in our older years.
I’m thankful and excited that Island Senior Resources has invited me to offer this later life circle for seniors on Whidbey Island. Because making new friends and taking a walk in the woods have a lot in common.
