celebrating us
 with a long walk in the woods
 (away from it all)
 

silence is golden
 when resting feet at sunset
 (your birthday present)
 

the breeze reminds me:
 i drove twenty-one hours
 to find this beauty
 

better than the beach:
 that grin on your face; these views;
 hard-earned sore muscles
 

thank you for crazy–
 (the long drive, the longer walk,
 another “us” year)
