Green

 

Deep in the forest

A place that I go to

Where I can be comforted

And not so lonely

The forest holds me

And it’s green

When I return

From a trip to the forest

I feel I’ve been transformed

Not knowing how

The forest holds me

And it’s green

Inside the forest

There’s so many animals

All of them wild

All quite protective

The forest holds me

And it’s green

Deep in the forest

The trees are like monuments

Shading the day

Some sky slips through the leaves

The forest holds me

I like green

Hi Everyone! Still hanging in the hills writing poems, short stories, and the novel I’ve been working on forever. It’s coming though slow but sure. I’ve been writing since I learned to and it’s always been with me for support and therapy. This is an older poem but one of my favorites. Hope you enjoy!
