Eerie Forest

Swaying branches spy as secret spooks in canopy’s dungeon Creepers knitted around trunks like ornamented bead chains Suspended pillar roots appear as the matted hair of Lord Shiva. Hoarse noises as non-rhythmic beats of an amateur drummer Serpents dragging their bodies on dried leaves with cracklings Hoots, chirps, clicks, and whoops from the crowns of trees Whispers of exhausted leaves and goggling eyes of silent owls Spiders’ silky webs levitating as the canvas of boats Trunks green with mass, standing as Lucifer's lieutenants Scent of flora mixed with acrid smell and the floor with sticky clag An impassable stretch never been eyed by the sun and moon as well. PLACE: 3rd

This is a good description of an eerie forest. Though scary to most people, this is the type of forest I love best. I have been happily lost in such a place. Thank you for this journey in nature.
