Winter Woods

The winter wood are stark and empty Open for all to see_deep Deep into the soul Undergrowth devoid of green_no blossoms seen Wonderful time to explore for can't be taken by surprise There is something about the winter woods that appeals_ Appeals to the human eye It calls come tramp deep_discover about life There are squirrel nests hidden high(in summer) Along with misteltoe_now seen One can see the squirrels play intelligent they are Not eating the misteloe Oh! how the winter woods stark and naked stand Wanting to tell all that they understand Come winter says come sit upon a rock, stump or knoll Wait, watch, listen, learn, As you go along in life, winter woods draws Draws from its soul to mature the very being of the young

Yes, Sara, the woods are best explored in winter. The eye catches so much that, in summer, is hidden by lush greenery.

Smile ~ "Yes," I do believe that a certain degree of wisdom etc., can be gathered amid nature "My 'Dear, Precious, Gifted & Lovely Sara Kendrick!!!'" ~ Albeit though I would surely have say, if, one chooses to apply its splendours unto, "The 'Glorious Creator'" of it All; "The Father of 'Light!!!'" ~ Then, True Wisdom, shall have been found. ~ Thus, I would have to say my dear that, "Your Beauty," surely deserves a kudo or two for ~ Cont:)
