Spirit of the Forest
As I wandered, barefoot, beneath cool green shade,
Caressing the soft, moist moss beneath my feet,
My discontented spirit sought a kalon lost.
As I gazed overhead, at the magnificent canopy above,
Festooned with streams of sun rays.
The chirping of birds and the fluttering of butterflies,
Were a marvel to behold in mine eyes.
As I crossed slippery rocks on the river bank,
Its sparkling waters like glittering diamonds,
And the silver flash of salmon, making it shine.
As I ventured, through a glen of flowers,
The buzzing of bees with the sweet scent of daisies.
And a striking plant, punctuated by red berries,
modest orbs, succulent and tangy.
As I sat and thought, on a log that had rot,
The platter of rain and the soft gusts of wind,
Showed me the resplendency of a forgotten beauty.
