Circle B Reserve

I truly enjoyed going to Circle B Reserve, I am from southern California and that is not a scenery I would typically see every day. Although it was a little gloomy, Circle B was very much “alive,” the animals were so elegant and the color of the plants were radiant, and to see that massive eagles nest was breath taking. It may seem to most people something they see every day by living in Florida, but for me coming from the city it is not, so excuse myself for being amazed by all that I saw. Although when I was on the trip to the Reserve I didn’t think about the poem from Hass and relate to it by what I was seeing at that moment, I was able to take the poem after the trip and ponder on it, I was able to look back at the pictures taken and correlate the poem with the memory of the trip, which I felt was more beneficial for me, due to the fact I didn’t have to think about the poem, I could just take in the scenery at that moment.

            I have already put into practice the notes on “Poetry,” I took a blanket outside and sat and read a book and enjoyed the sunshine and the sound of nature. It was more comfortable for me to sit out in nature than inside the house. The book I am reading is called “Captivating,” and there is a part in the beginning where she talks about how women love to be adventurous, and the author goes on about a story where she was camping and she describes every little detail that she saw, felt, smelled, heard, and even tasted. I was able to read that chapter outside and the book became alive to me like I was living what the author had lived and was describing. I want to incorporate nature into my daily life now, and to learn to go outside more and enjoy God’s creations!
