Woods

[soarineagle]

As I walk in the woods
gazing at the trees
life is peaceful
beneath the canopy.

Little creatures of the forest
…are scurrying to and fro
scampering beneath the trees
…as the sun sparkles
in between the leaves of the trees.


Dapple sunshine comes
shining through
the boughs of the trees
…dancing shadows from the sun
changes the landscape into
a wonderland of sights.

Earthy smells are
…tickling the senses
with the scents
decaying leaves
rustling under foot
…brings to mind
winter nights.

Beautiful.

I was challenged to write a poem.
My friend (he is a poet also) gave me the topic Woods.
Hence this poem was born. :rolleyes:
