yaml blocks

[Mitch Trachtenberg]

I'm working off of mods to a camel spring boot example, and running into
confusion in yaml files.  I'm using Camel 4.3 and Spring Boot 3.2.2, and I
am feeding a minimal Java program with a route via yaml.  When the yaml
file does not include the first line below, "*routes:*" and there is no
indent before "- route:" all is well.  But when I modify it to create a
"routes:" block, the route is not loaded.  My hope is to have a routes
block, a beans block, and a routeConfiguration block.  Any suggestions
appreciated.  Thanks.

*routes:*
  - route:
        id: timerDemo
        from:
          uri: timer:myTimer?fixedRate=true&period=5000
          steps:
            - setBody:
               simple: "Hello from the timer!"
            - to:
               uri: log:myLog?level=INFO&showAll=true&multiline=true
