The traveler : A walk in the woods

Breathing in

Sweet fragrance

Of flowers

I slowly

Keep going

On inside

The woods

I feared

When I

Was small.

My heart

Still pounded

As I

Remembered

Unnameable devils

And demons

That crept

From under

The shadows

Of trees

To grab

And bite

At me,

But now,

I saw

The canopies

Of trees

That light

Up in

The mornings

And shine

Emerald green.

No monsters

Can live

Under something

So beautiful.

The birds

They sing

And sometimes

They chatter

Some quarrels

Tweeting back

And forth

Making me

Smile at

How long

They fight.

The sun

Slowly sets

Underneath

The distant

Golden slopes

That glitter

Reflecting the

Shining rays.

I sit

On grass

As night

Comes falls

Enveloping

The skies

With millions

Of stars,

Countless.

The crickets,

They chirp

A beautiful sound

I slowly

Tread back

To the lights

Of the town

After a walk

In the woods...

In the woods
