Nature’s Whisper

I followed the beams beneath the cloud dotted expanse 
Dissolving into the earth like the glittering of morning sun
Just beyond the weathered cedar planks, notes of crisp juniper invigorate my senses

A winding path of moss-covered, rough-hewn stone
The forest floor unfurls, a tapestry of hidden stories amidst the swaying willows 
Iridescent shards, luring me deeper into the heart of the forest 

Tossed on the breeze like a feather on a restless tide
Into the solitude of a deserted glade, where shadows seep in like a slow-moving fog
Twisted limbs stretch towards the sky, a rhythmic creaking that echoes 

Spinning beneath the indigo expanse 
Leaves rustle a soft susurrus, lingering like a gentle chant
A chorus of red maple foliage and ancient whispers
