Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Woods Enthuse Me

Woods enthuse me,
Bring me to a dancing state.
Lilt me, lift me, bring me back to my soul mother.
Bring me home, in pure joy and excitement.

I adore you, Woods.
Your fox, your eagle, your moss, your deer.
I am one with them, for I am one with you, and 
We are all a part of this universal oneness 

Mother sky and Mother meadow 
Was there ever a more cosmic place in this 
Fantasy world that some think is the real world?

Let me dance and sing and throw my arms into the air,
Playing enthusiastically into your eternal oneness, 
Reveling in your stumps, branches, and the roots that
Tie Mother Earth to this heart-felt place.

Let others be of this world. Let me be ethereal,
A faerie whose wings are dancing and prancing in
perfect harmony with the heartbeat of the forest, 
My savior, my friend, the pulse of the woods.
Nurturing my soul in joyfulness.
May I always be in awe of her.
Always.

Quoth Theraven October 16, 2019 at 9:41 AM Caren, I like this walk through the woods. We hunted for mushrooms and picked American ginseng those many years ago. -Richard

M. L. Kiser March 4, 2019 at 7:09 PM A "Fav"; I see you out there dancing among the trees with happiness, giddiness; perfectly ecstatic. Caren Krutsinger March 4, 2019 at 10:59 PM I must admit I see myself there, and I am crazy with happiness about those trees!

Michelle Faulkner March 4, 2019 at 2:21 PM Wonderful line 'perfect harmony with the heartbeat of the forest' - I too worship Mother Earth! Caren Krutsinger March 4, 2019 at 4:55 PM I know you do, my environmentalist queen.
