Nestled between two forest giants
Lies the tomb of a mighty king
Buried years before our birth
Is now empty, missing
The ruling monarch
A mere spirit
Gathering
Human
Souls
Who
Wander
As they seek
The shaded day
Escaping the sun
Under lush greenery
Unaware of the trap set
They fall, endlessly, to their death
Never finding their way home again

Mists weave in and out of brush

In the forest, a stillness, a hush

Which lingers in the quietude

As morn begins its soft prelude

And wakens to the faintest breeze

Enveloped round the sleepy trees

A sanctuary, a forgotten place

Where life slows, to a calmer pace

A chance to disappear, unheard

Where nothing is said, not a word

And as the winds whisper in my ear

Light covets darkness, crystal clear

To show the beauty I’ve come to see

And rest mine, weary eyes on thee

Soak in, all those in nature’s attendance

The Glory of God, in subtle resplendence

Whispers of wonder, beyond shadows, fall

Prismatic glow adorns the darkened trees

Lost to the wind, among mountains tall

Here is my heart, standing strong and free

Basking in the light, of the afternoon sun

I feel the warmth on my face, and it’s grand

How perfectly aligned I am, but not yet done

I still have much more I must understand

Flowers in the distance, seem to call my name

Across the lush green grasses, I wander closer

As I walk this sacred land, my soul is mine to claim

To this symphony, I am, my own composer

The forest sings to me, I’m as calm as I can be

Far beyond the realm of my command

I no longer need this boat, to carry me on my way

I simply float on waters, under feathered clouds, gray

And yet there is this color, it shines, within the dark

One calling, aloud, my name, singing sweetly, as a lark

Who must be hiding in the trees, lining these waters, afar

I wonder, does he sing for me, or is he wishing me au revoir

As I glide about, in my boat, I see my lantern start to dim

Sailing, into the shining light, I leave behind, a phantom

Singing sweetly, from a limb
