Nature's Secrets

I feel curious, wanting to explore the depths of this forest.
What lies beneath the blinding greens?
The small birds chorused
Weaving throughout the trees, their bark wrinkled and lean
Much like an old man’s skin, rough and gentle like sawdust
Tracking throughout the leaves, I wondered, does mankind mean to help, or to harm?
I wanted to learn, to grow from this experience, not deforest,
Mother Nature, I am truly sorry we humans cannot see the true power of nature, unseen and clean.
