“Set me a task in which I can put something of my very self,
and it is a task no longer;
it is joy; it is art.”  Bliss Carman

We went for a walk together in the woods–all her idea–and then I found a paper in her backpack from the field trip she took to a local wildlife sanctuary.

What did I hear?

“I could hear water, the crunching leaves, and birds chirping.”

What did I see?

“I saw, trees, and a squirl, and deer poop, and pine cones, and birds, and vernal pools.

We found a bone so we slipped it on her “adventure stick.”

What did I smell?

“I could smell skunk cabbage, and a fresh nature smell.”

How did I feel?

“I felt rain, and the cool air, and the cruching leaves under my feet.”
