Never Alone

Yet alone.

All morning, alone, in solitude.

Walking the meadow, I step over a creek.

The long grass and the small stream are my companions.

Stepping over a tumbled old rock wall, the smell of shifted soil fills my nostrils.

The earth is my companion.

Climbing the path upward to a valley view, the wind whips at my garments.

The air is my companion.

Never alone, though alone.

Thank you, Lord.

Can I enjoy this solitude?
