I have walked in the forest all alone
And for too long I have been but one soul
My eyes have seen the beauties of nature that no one sees
The dews white mist in the morning time that makes the grass grow cold
Or the fireflies in the dell with high grass that hold wind blowing forever it seems
They do dance so like stars in the night in the summer wind  
Yet for all such beauties that never end I do wander for more
I wish for my one soul a two for I have no unity yet with nature’s soul
Though I wish to be one with her I have failed so many times
She is the elusive and complex she is the ever-changing constant
I do love to see her as a living breathing being
She does call to me at night when I am soon to dream
But alas she is too far away then for me to find her
So because she is so elusive I want a soul as close as mine to her
For she is the beauty that nature cant compare
And though the queen of the forest has the stars for me to gaze
Such a lovely has two eyes for me to stare and stare I do
For there is no texture in nature more soft than she but me
But I am not as graceful yet she is like the air
Though I see the sights of nature I see her more the apple
So sweet and ripe to me, the fruit of natures working
I seek to speak and live to meet this girl so beautiful to me
So in our walking in this forest we shall be two souls into a one
And with that two we shall fall into the soul of lady forest
So soon we’ll be the spirit too of beauty life and live forever
Life lived much like a stream a never-ending dream
That no string can ever tether


I am the two-toed wanderer

reading backwards I am
but that's me
for it's all a circle anyway
within a heartbeat
start to end
and back again

I love the soft romantic flow of this
and shall let it fly
alongside parts 2 and 3
