She enters the forest weak and weary
and is welcomed to a canopy of trees
The forest was quietly eerie
as she lifts her eyes to see
She sees with saddened eyes the trees
their laden arms were stretch-out
Offering fruits as many as she pleased
as she quietly walks about
Blue birds chirping in the deep-dark forest
As streaks of the evening sun-rays beamed
Tannin-brown leaves flecked the forest floor
around the radiant shady glades
The peace engulfing the forest
was a welcome therapy to her
wondering and fearing the future,
she surrenders her life to Him
As she takes a deep, deep breath
the smell was fresh and organic
She meditates as she walks quietly,
her melancholy fading away.

This is very good rr nicely expressed> write on ww
Thank you Willy... I appreciate your words of encouragement.
What this reminds me of is whenever I was stressed, a walk in nature was refreshing. Nicely done. Very readable and paints pictures.
Really invokes the atmosphere, it flows and I'm there - a sign of a great poem
Thank you all for your kind words and the encouragement.
