The woods
Near my house is a little patch of woods. You hardly notice it when you are driving by. Maybe it’s a couple hundred feet square. Being on the corner of an intersection and next to an empty field, this little patch of woods stands alone. While riding my bike one day, I decided to stop and take a break. Pushing through the brush and stickers, I forged ahead into the trees.
Wow! What a beautiful spot. The sunlight filtered down through the leaves in little patches sprinkled here and there. A bed of leaves made the ground feel soft and kept the underbrush to a minimum. I never would have thought that right here in the middle of suburbia was such a quiet little wood!
