Forest

Jayasree

The dark, green forest beckons me.

Sunlight falling through 

the dense branches

drawing patterns on the

forest floor

on the fallen leaves. 

I walk along the

leaf strewn paths,

the dew soaked leaves

wet under my bare feet.

The music of the chirping birds 

and cicadas

serenading me.

I touch the wild flowers,

I touch

the touch me nots

I see them curling up 

like babies

and my heart sings!

This is bliss,

to be alive

in such a beautiful world.

    Well yes, you will know from my previous posts how i am in awe of the woodlands peace and tranquility. Previously I have called the woodlands 'natures own cathederals'.

    I enjoyed reading your fine tribute to the forest today. Without doubt I shall share many more times within woodland's wonders.
