Whispering Trees

Into wild grass of the green woods my teddy bear wanted to go Away from cuddle of sofas and pillows a real forest he wanted to know. Let's climb this tree full of big leaves branches swaying, in mild soft breeze Wish we both had feathers and wings, to reach top... of the whispering trees. 9th May 2019 Theme pic #1 child with teddy bear climbing tree Eve Roper's Free verse or Rhyme contest 8 lines Placed first in winning list

I love the whimsical spirit of your beautiful poem, Debjani. I remember imagining what it would be like to be able to fly as a child and your lovely poem brought those feelings back to me. Captivating poetry. Best wishes for a win.. ~Susan
