Back to Nature
Get back to nature, the brochure read
Tranquil walks, the ranger said
Walking the trail, between the trees
This was going to be a breeze.
After a while, things started to change
Blisters were forming, we were out of our range
Leeches and ticks, mosquitoes and ants
All were biting, we didn’t stand a chance.
Limping slowly, we retraced our steps
Back to the beginning of our tranquil quest
Where enjoyment in nature, turned to distress and pain
And yes of course, it started to rain.
