“Describe your favorite place using all five senses.”
In Starved Rock State Park
Trails wind to the top of bluffs
Or into canyons.
Coarse, wooden railings
Line the rugged hiking trails
Causing splintered palms.
The wind blows through trees
Creating songs in the leaves
Calling you outdoors.
The waterfall mist
Mixes with the taste of air
So crisp on my tongue.
Water, earth, and green
Combine into aromas
Revitalizing.
