Estos poemas rebosan la belleza del mundo natural y la alegría que se encuentra al aire libre. Hay estrellas que se bañan en el río, el sol que se esconde detrás de la montaña y un arroyo que se envuelve en sombras. En un verso, los autores señalan que hay solo una corta distancia desde el río hasta la autopista que conduce de regreso a la bulliciosa y concurrida ciudad, "sin embargo, esos pocos kilómetros / nos permiten vivir / en un mundo muy diferente."


 

These poems brim with the beauty of the natural world and the joy found in the great outdoors. There are stars that bathe in the river, the sun that hides behind the mountain and a stream that wraps itself in shadows. In one verse, the authors note there's only a short distance from the river to the freeway leading back to the crowded, noisy city, "yet those few kilometers / allow us to dwell / in a very different world."
