Enchanted Forest

Sun – at first dusk leaving footsteps to follow
After a smooth, relentless retreat
Mystical breeze, dancing gracefully – leaf to leaf
Upon the arms of every tree
Exquisite sounds of the night harmonizing
The sacred songs and sensual secrets of paradise
Beautiful swans circling and singing erotic
Melodies --- throughout exotic flight
Moonlight glistened in sanctity from its reflection
In the agitated but subdued creek
Scents of blooming and blossomed flowers
Bombarded the night air with delectable sweets
