The way through the woods
By Ayla V K
Whirling, wild winds whispering softly to the trees,
A place of peace and no boundaries,
Be yourself as that’s all you’ve got,
Besides the company of the leaves, trees, sticks, the lot,
Small sounds scare the wild,
I see the critters run and I can’t help but smile.
The forest is like a second home to me,
I share it with many and always feel free,
I walk through the trees as they tower over me,
CRUNCH...
SNAP...
CRACK...
And then they all begin to flee,
The forest is a space with no rules or regulations,
So peaceful and quiet, it holds its own nation.
The forest is a place you are expected to survive,
that part is easy as I always feel alive.
My emotions are free, so I share them around,
For the whole entire forest to be astounded.
The forest is mother nature’s greatest creation,
You can go when you please without a reservation.
