He stood alone
Amidst the tranquil wonder of the forest
An unsatisfied yearning
To be touched by the freshening breeze
Would he hear
The intonations of the whispering wind
And be sated?
Enveloped by the magnetic charms of the wild?
He felt the gentle touch of
Silken lips
Softly pressed against his brow
Soothing warmth
Of elfin graces and earthly splendor.
He had sought
Beneath the heaven's shining stars
And he found
Amongst the forest, amid the feral creatures
Hearts desire.

Tim, this is the best construction I've seen from you. You made every word count and blended them beautifully.
