Goethe's Path

The forest path meandered through the trees ahead the silvery tinkling sound of water there was also a murmuring drone of bees slowly slithering away was a sleepy adder Entering the pretty glade full of flowers his senses lulled by the peacefulness watching with joy the diving dippers and a kingfisher preening its feathers Onward through the leafy forest he strolled over on the right there were many fissures as breathing heavily he climbed up the wold arriving at the huts of the wood dwellers The high priest Druid Fire Dancer strode out shouting welcome, come sit here by the fire there roasting over the fire pit were trout people dancing to the sweet tunes of the lyre written 06/30/2014 contest Goethe Stanza
