Best Woods Poems

Whilst walking through the woods one day
A crystal brook there, shone so gay
The sun was shining oh' so bright
As brook reflected all it's light

Buzzing insects all around
Oh' they made a delightful sound
Birds flew upwards to the sky
These parrots made a hue and cry

Carpet of flowers...

I go into the woods to find my inner peace,
since a little girl this is my own special place;
my emotions held-  in the woods I can release,
each tree and each flower my spirit does embrace.

Since a little girl this is my own special place,

Deep in the woods, a cottage lies,
deep in the core of it,
and gazing out with empty eyes,
twins by a window sit.

Deep in their thoughts, they sit, these two,
above their shack, a shroud
of limbs from trees block any view
of sun, or moon or cloud.

Deep in their...

Where hazel bushes mix with sturdy oaks
and beech trees densely grow in shades of green
the fairy flowers come in early spring
attired in clothes of violet-blue sheen.
The swathes of bluebells, like a sheet unrolled
before our eyes, breathtaking to behold!

There's a path I always take
down to the river where the woods
are dressed down open
The light of the sky
doesn't shine in your eyes
but leads the way to redemption
 
I like to stand there for a moment
on the shortcut created by troubled feet
woven with wilderness bliss
and cigarettes...

Against a night frightened white,
a tall tree stands - skeletal -
transfixing me one winter
on my woodland walk.

Small trees surround the tall one.
They extend icy fingers
as if to help point me out
to the taller tree.

The hairs rise on my arms as
I view the long black limbs...

A dirt road leads into a forest
This road is winding and narrow
     into the woods
As the car travels it comes to a fork
Now a decision must be made to-
        turn left or right

After awhile...

As I stroll through the Autumn woods
I hear the cracking crunch of leaves.
And whistling through the bare branches
a brisk breeze, shrieks like a banshee.

A chatty squirrel barks and squeaks
as I stroll through the Autumn woods.
And when dusk dims, I hear an owl
hooting lowly in the...

What were you doing, alone in the woods, my John,
What were you doing out at dawn?
Why it hasn't rained for ages now,
So many failed crops, and fields you must plough.
Your dirty clothes are all so glum.
You're just a little dirty bum
You deserve no pity, my...

Her whisper gentle like the summer breeze
Calls a passing sparrow lonely and shy,
One that had escaped the northerly bise
Intoxicated from flying too high.
A welcoming hand held out a surprise
While a tranquil voice hints of sweet meadows,
Orchestration of each golden sunrise
Her kindly eyes destroy fearsome shadows.
This...

On a darkened night in a full moon's glow 
Alone, I walk, on a midnight stroll 
Along the trail, where Old Buck roams 
A path of footprints deep in snow 

An old wise owl's echoing hoots 
Sticker bushes, made- rabbit's homes 
A foxhole 'Neath a...

Dare not rove in the woods on Halloween 
There are witches there who are best not seen
They tempt one with brew that resembles stew
Truth is what goes in the brew’s not for you.

They put in chewed bones from fingers and toes
What they consider gravy, no...
