A Forest Tale
A Simple Poem from a woodland walk.
A Forest Tale
Into the woods I go
Not a sound
Except for the breeze whistling through the trees
Except for the birds chirping their favourite tune
Onwards I go
Deeper and Deeper
I find a clearing
An invitation to sit on the trunk of a fallen tree
The dappled light of the late summer sun
Warming my face, warming the ground
Leaves gently falling, falling to the bed below
A blanket of amber, red, gold, brown
A few minutes pass by as I sit quietly and listen
To the woodland dwellers
Living their best lives in the woodland they call home
A poem inspired by
Summer Writing Sanctuary “Tree Wisdom”.
