Forest Mysteries

Soon the forest would reveal its dark secret Poems are written. Music is composed. Ballets are staged. In enacting suspense-filled plays, each creature is engaged. Mysteries, like petals of blossoming flowers, unfolded. As sketched by nature, the shapes of plants and trees are moulded. Midway through the brawl for existence, the fittest survive. From Mother Earth, life-giving nectar, all creatures derive Do trees pay tax as per their heights, and do beasts as per strength? Which creature has measured the forest's height, breadth, width, and depth? What serenity between drops of the flowing fountain! Isn't there a transmission of peace between each mountain? The food cycle and water cycle roll like the planets. Prey and predator eye each other in forage facets. Owls, bats, hawks, frogmouths, and nightjars share nocturnal secrets. Some feed others. Some feed on others. There are ruts, no riots. The gentle breeze soothes the soul, though the gales disturb Love lives long, between the strongest tree and the weakest herb. Doors of forests, yet, like puzzle-filled caves, are numerous Amidst sunshine, unknown nooks in it are voluminous
