Forest of Lost Dreams Felled

I wandered through the forest felled. Its stumps arrayed as scars. Its bird song larks forever quelled, to axed-silent memoirs. Remnants of trees are now a maze, traced by entrails of mists Curling up as veils between leaves, that once held memories. The moon's face shunned turned away shamed. The wind scurried around, the graves of trees blatantly maimed, through paths no feet felt ground. The forest of trees lost its leaves. Lost its old trunks of dreams. Lost all its shade and shadows cast, to vast bright white clearings. I saw the ancient remnant dells, spared of incumbent trees, get crowded out by death-neath spells, of clearings, down to knees.
