Walking alone Through a strange woodland Two birds overhead chase in crazy aerobatics A soft breeze caresses her neck Its woody scent teases her nose A blossom petal floating on the wind presses a kiss to her cheek Bubbling brook gurgling its pleasure Bending tree branches moan above her A fallen bough displays its two limbs splayed Beds of pine needles soft beneath her feet A sapling's stump still standing erect Jack-in-the-pulpit Shows a stamen inviting She thinks: "Why, why must everything, make me think me of you?" Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe ~ |
