The Enchanted Forest

The Enchanted Forest

A Poem by Bashjasper
"

Talks 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
