Magical Forest
In magical forest spring is in the air
After long winter sun has finally answered inhabitants’ prayer
Bear came out of his lair
Wolf as always is chasing a hare
Soon in the old orchid behind the forest will grow apples and pear
With his children story of magical forest farmer will share
He tells them that of time when into deep eyes of forest phantom he would stare
He tells them how the phantom to merry the spring would declare
Love for mysterious phantom the spring would share
But she knew for the forest inhabitants it would be unhappy affair
For this union sun would impair
And during spring no flowers orchid trees would bear
Spring was a lady with long flowing hair
Deep eyes beautiful soul piercing and rare
She was lovely and fair
And to imprison her spirit phantom would not dare
With sun as a father spring three children would bare
Daughter rain brothers growth and wind were in her care
Rain and growth where good well positioned pair
But wind with his wondering nature could not settle anywhere
His parents would despair
Something that phantom would become aware
Maybe winds place is to travel phantom would declare
Spreading seeds and good will everywhere
But what is the place of winds’ soul said spring it can’t be just anywhere
Rain and growth have their spirits with us but wind is everywhere and no where
He never stays long in one place he is motion of air
I have an idea said the phantom which I wish to share
Wind could be your concessionaire
Winds soul can be high end abstract dimension rather than doctrinaire
He can be metaphor, riddle, and fundamental question, philosophy to compare
Beyond expanse and vice perfect in his own lair
That is what would keep magical forest magic phantom would declare
And at the top of that magic would be wind’s questionnaire
Like ballad whispered by bird in midair
Like wonderful story old farmer with his children would share
