Lost in woods

Incessant drizzle soak pith of each and every dense tree in evergreen forest where moss, algae, lichens paints lush hues of green, blue and rich brown While wet birds forget to sing glistening snakes search shelter termites, ants, crawlers, stingers start climbing slippery trees inundated forest floor Near to dusk, a shy sun shaft reaches decayed fallen log adding chill to eerie air a great gray owl looks at me I count my heart-beats to dawn
