Cascade Trail
_____________________________________
The trail transforms from hard to soft
Looking up the sky is needled
Below my feet a tan carpet
*
Moss covers rocks like a carpet
Ferns make eroded stream bank soft
Pine cones dot a trail that’s needled
*
Shoulders brushed by branches needled
Hiking boots scuff up new carpet
All the green and tan make sounds soft
*
I tread on soft, needled, carpet
