kitty the naughty poet

Forest.

Forest.

Canopy of trees embraced by foliage,

The forest floor covered in mud

This raging torrent from the sky

 Cascades down around me,

On this cold November eve,

A cavern within the wooden land

Invites me to take shelter

I dive deeper. I can hear them clearly

The voices ring out in harmony 

Rain beat down, winds blow cold

People keep away from our land untold

Magic slice the happiness in the air

Stir their demons, turn eyes black as night

Make them fold and quake

Humans beseech beware 

Lost for a thousand years

To all who enter here.
