The Enchanted ForestA Poem by BashjasperTalks about human activities that are changing the world's environment.In the cold night of early winter Far and near, whisper pierces through Like the arrow from a powerful string Bringing forth the obscurity of darkness Boring the twigs to lifelessness Eschewing the beauty of late spring Yet, twigs fore-bearing the strength to wither Soliloquizing with endurance of loneliness For trees are humming the sound of betrayal And forever craving for eternal existence Till roots becomes rotten And shoots of strange origin sprouts often To replace the sweet garland Alas, a flourishing forest through the hinterland Now, a shadow of her transcending beauty © 2016 Bashjasper |
