take me to the forest (poetry series)

the tranquil sound of running water

weaving through the rocks

soothes the innermost part of my being.

solace

in the flow

of life force

that permeates

these magical woods.

connection to the wind

that funnels through the trees

between moments of stillness.

supportive is the earth

between my toes

grounding me in its essence.

powerful are the rays

of the sun

piercing down between the trees,

warming the earth.

Blessed by this interconnection.

peace...

in the elements.
