NOTE: This was NOT written by me. It is a very special poem that a friend of mine wrote for me. Please enjoy.

The Walk

The vast stars go unseen
Until their peacefulness overcomes you.
A walk so serene
Makes their meaning be true.

Along the grass wet with dew
Nature surrounds all.
A path to walk through
Leads to a body's calm.

This spontaneous walk
Filled through to the soul.
With companion to talk
You can finally take control.

A night to remember
That memory cannot erase.
Is what will stay inside me.
Even when stars leave only a trace.
