Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Poet Hybronnet

My Woodland Haven

The forest is my last retreat.
There breezes sing a quiet song.
As flowers scented air stays sweet,
My heart with music sings-along.

There, nature has a love affair.
Squirrels’ treetop tricks solicit smiles.
The beastly beings living there, 
Array the day with fun lifestyles --

Protected by the land itself,
All creatures seek and find refuge.
I love to walk there by myself.
In quiet peace where hearts grow huge.

So, sheltered by the hand of God,
Until I die, I shall be awed.
