" Time and Time Again " by Susan Pearl

It just made sense to him,
     to be outdoors-----partners with nature,
     having a vacation escape each year by hiking in a rugged wilderness land,
    and being held captive by it all being so amazingly grand.
It just made sense to him.

There was something there in the great outdoors
   that no where else held for him-
He was drawn to its beauty and drawn to its charms
   and the majesty that awaited him
  was like a love awaiting for him with wide open arms
  for him to embrace time and time again.

Each time was like a reunion with a tireless and faithful friend,
Calling him over and over to come back again,
Answering that call just made sense to him-
   to go where he wanted truly to be
   with the passion of so much beauty to see
   joined with peace and tranquility.

Best wishes to the outdoorsman and outdoorswoman,
   and the time they spend-
   reconnecting, renewing and refreshing themselves with nature,
   recapturing a small part of what can not ever be totally captured--
With each time like a reunion of seeing a tireless sight of a faithful friend...
   giving a vastness to be drawn on
   and moments to be reflected upon---
   for years to come---- time and time again.
