The Damp Forest

The sweet smell of fresh dew fills my lungs like cool water from a misty stream,
Moss smothers damp, wet trees like icing on a rich, sticky chocolate cake,
I hear birds calling one another singing a pleasant tweeting song,
I look up and see,
The towering trees,
Which sway above me,
Forming a dark cave,
That hugs me tight,
The splat of fat, cool rain,
Slipping through the,
Dark green leaves,
I hear the crunch,
Of dry leaves like crisps in a packet,
Crunching under my heavy feet.
