A Walk Over The Valleys Poem by Raj Arumugam

A Walk Over The Valleys



we walked
quietly over the hills and fields
and we stopped awhile
to catch our breath

or to stop for our lunch
that we had brought
wrapped in cloth by our sides

or if we were caught
by some sudden beauty
that often arises
in trees, valleys or in the bush

we came home
tired, but with memories
gently humming their tunes
