lack of wildness

so missing
in my life of late
is a deep sense
of wildness anymore
mostly house bound
or nearby outside
i have domestic
nature tamed
my flowers shrubs
small tree birdfeeder
visitors all of
which i appreciate
but it's not like
walking thru the
Bundy Schoolhouse clearing
up and over the backside
of Unbrella mountain
looking down on the
diggings building
Green River reservoir
now Green River
State Park usefull
well managed but
it's not wildness
besides i'll probably
never see again
even that except
in thoughts and dreams.

Yes looking back as this poem tends to make me want to do, I remember the wild barren trails of my youth, where wildflowers were taken for granted, blueberries were a five minute walk away and the wildlife lived wild.
