A Walk In the Forest

It is amazing what I see
On a walk in the forest near the end of spring.
I saw two big trees joined together in the
middle covered with bright green 
Philodendrons that were sitting on an eave
Above a door.
Who ever lives out here in the middle of no
Where really wants their privacy
Away from society.
There's no sign keeping away any visitor.
It is amazing what I see
An entryway in all this scenery
Furthermore
Who ever lives out here in the middle of no
Where really wants their privacy.
It is a mystery
That probably has to do with wee folklore.
It is amazing what I see.
An entrance to gain information about who
Owns this property.
It has gotten my curiosity up all the way 
Down to my core.
Who ever lives out here in the middle of no
Where really wants their privacy.
Knock. Knock. Hello. Your a Hobbit. Now 
That I know your a reality
I won't bother you anymore.
It is amazing what I see
Who ever lives out here in the middle of no
Where really wants their privacy.

You must have been out walking with Tolkien or perhaps Sinclair Lewis. I'll bet you had a wonderful time:) Fun read Bette:)

Thank you. I am glad you liked it. No. I wasn't with them. They are a great read though. I was with my children when they were young going hiking or to the park with them was a totally unique experience. Yes, we always had so much fun. I hope you are feeling better. In my prayers.
