Mother Nature's Realm

Even for a lion that loves soarin' through the infinite blue skies, and his fluffy dergon friend who calls those very same gorgeous skies his domain; these two adventurous aviators will occasionally shift back a few gears and embark on some less adrenaline-pumping adventures. Seeking something different than the wild yet glorious thrills of flight. One might think that wandering through a forest can't quite match the stunning view from above, seeing vast stretches of terrain passing right below with its many grand features. However, taking their time to explore some of Mother Nature's many different realms up close, provides them a chance to experience a very different kind of beauty. Allowing them to truly embrace the many treasures each place has to offer, along with the rare secrets and bright gems hidden among them.

On this particular warm sunny summer's day, the two find themselves trekking along a lengthy trail quite a few dozen miles deep inside a lush forest. Their path taking a variety of twists and turns around the countless tall and sturdy trees, whose healthy green leaves dance and sway in the steady forest breeze that carries Mother Nature's song and tickles both of their ears. Every so often, the two would encounter a small stream or a brook that cuts across the peaceful trail; carrying refreshing, crystal clear waters that trickle down from the distant snow-capped mountains. But after a quick hop over for the lion and nothing more than a simple step over for his big friend, the two would continue on their journey to no place in particular. Not caring about the destination, but rather just enjoying the journey itself and all of its wonders. The entire time, their eyes would dart from left to right, glancing further down the path to behind them or up above as they enjoyed the show all around them of forest critters and birds going about their business on this nice day. And although a few short sentences and a few chuckles were exchanged between the two at the beginning of their stroll, for the most part, the two remained silent. Not wanting to disturb the natural currents of nature's song that flows through the surrounding environment. That song combining with the golden rays of sunshine pouring on them through the canopy, gives them an unparalleled magical sensation; a certain warming embrace from Mother Nature, the gift of her peaceful realms...

Was gonna title this "Walk in the 'Pawk'" ...but let's settle down with that xP And if I haven't said it before, lemme say it a thousand times more... I LOVE BLUE JAYS! Sadly I've seen exactly zero so far this year. Heard one later in the evening a week ago, high up in the trees while doing some bird-watching in the backyard. I was hoping it would swing by the feeder but no luck. Ahh wells, still got a whole summer season ahead to see some. Actually, there is this female cardinal I've been seeing for a good while now, who frequents the bird feeder. One day I noticed a male cardinal show up, and thought he'd just pass through, but nope. Been seeing him around more and more. Specifically around the female cardinal too! Every time I see the female one I'm always on the lookout for the male one and seems almost every time he's most def there. I'm like 90% sure they're mates now and it's so heckin' adorable. Who knows maybe in a good number of months might be seeing more cardinal flying around, offspring of those two love birbs =3 ...wait. Not sure why I just started rambling about that x) Anywho hope you enjoyed this piece and the little writing to go along with it.

Truly magnificent work of art done by artist  Lunalei Lunalei dazzles once again with another wonderful work of art! Everyone one of 'em she's done for me has come out so well and I truly appreciate the time and efforts put forth to create these stunning works of art. I especially love the purrspective here, almost as if the viewer is up there in the trees, looking back down on the two who're fascinated by the lovely blue jay. Think everyone deserves to do just this every once in a while, take a nice nature walk and feel at peace away from the rush of life, if even for a little bit. Many thanks once again to Lunalei, and look forward to commissioning her in the future. Highly recommend her if you're looking for high-quality art! Original artist post here: [Forest Walk]
