The Misfit

The forest's morning sunlight tip-toes through the trees casting puzzle pieces round, oh so, carelessly; hiding all the corner bits scattered by the breeze. The slighter boles of ash whisper endlessly as their upright slash of gray teases 'tween the green while their larger cousins stand, oh so, stoically. And, the sky far over head blues the in between back lighting, spruce and pine, as far as the eye can see. Man intrudes like a child, man and his machines. Knocking down the squirrel's nest, disturbing the bee leaving waste along the path, muddying the stream misplaced is his disregard in that we all agree. Oh so brashly, mankind walks through nature's domain a misfit son, a terror, crippling while he reigns.
