Walk With Me Through Ancient Trees

Walk with me through ancient trees, where few men ever tread.

An eerie silence stills the leaves
and whispering overhead.

They're watching us, wary distrust,
from rumors on the wind.

From chatter of the birds and squirrels they cannot trust in men.

Out of the corner of my eye
A furtive shadow slides

A crow calls out somewhere on high
A chipmunk runs and hides

'We mean no harm' I softly say
while scanning forest floor

'We'll not disturb your peace today
With you we're not at war'

But words mean nothing to the wood

Sensing the soul's intent it could

Determine if you're friend or foe

If heaven sent or from below

So vibrate love and shine out light
In woods across the nation

And if we're lucky we just might..

Forge bonds with all creation.

The poem in it's entirety:-)

(I actually made this post yesterday, but my phone kept freezing and I didn't think about the fact that it is no longer Wednesday, ha!)
