Notes About The Poem

A Forest Soul Cleanse

“And into the forest I go to lose my mind and find my soul.” - John Muir



The forest is a calm spiritual place,
a balsam scented and serene space.
Rabbits hide in mossy dens,
with fresh mushroom gems.
Magical!
Cleanse.
Fanciful,
trees, flowers and stems.
Where creatures sleep and some race.
A place to treat with kindness and grace,
the forest is a calm spiritual place.

There is no more tranquil place than the forest Tania, you can if only for a short time forget everything that's happening in the outside world. Good luck in the contest Tom
