Forest The forest begins to awaken with the soft glow of dawn Darkness gives way to light as the first rays of the sun peek through the upper branches Birds begin to sing their tunes a symphony of peace and joy welcoming the new day Walking slowly through the trees my footsteps are muffled by a soft carpet of fallen leaves still wet with morning dew Away from the city’s chaos with it’s man made clutter and illusions of reality My mind begins to clear I am wonderfully alive again surrounded by living earth I feel the tension drain away as the simple call of a bird reminds me of what is real © 9/99 Gary Pence Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. -Edgar Allen Poe |

I love the woods and nature. Reading this has made me long to return for a long overdue visit. Your poem has lulled me with peace Gary. [This message has been edited by childomine (edited 03-17-2000).] |

This poem is what i want. i want to be away from the city's chaos. i want to be in the love of nature the way it should be. i want to hear the birds sing a morning song as i walk within the trees and all the happiness that surrounds me would lift me high and help me stand when i fall. Wonderful poem. I wish I could be there. |

*Embarassed* to say I do not think I have read this one before love......... It is so peaceful and reminds me of the things that I tell you I treasure! Breathtaking images conjured in my mind with this one........ |
