When the woods and water are bleak and brown
They still possess a certain charm
Though cold and grey, the air and sky
We walk through the woods, my dog and I
Woods
All my creative pursuits.

When the woods and water are bleak and brown
They still possess a certain charm
Though cold and grey, the air and sky
We walk through the woods, my dog and I

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
This reminded me of that last stanza of Robert Frost. 💜
