Walking Through the Rainforest

Crunch, crunch, I walked
I touched the greenest leaf with patterns dancing across the smooth surface
It smelt like the crispness of the air
The birds sang
The crickets chirping
Like a heartbeat
The plants wrapping around the footpath
The lush, jungle-themed rainforest
All the colours were vibrant
It was misty
I spot a tree
Saying you will come here everyday
When I blink, its message is gone
This is its final request.
