Forest

An enchanting forest bides my time

with beautiful melodies as secrets unwind.

A beautiful dream of an arrow so true

that strikes the heart of a lover turned blue.

But the heart is beating with a fast little pulse

And the wind is stirring as creatures leap across.

I watch and wait at the spectacle I can see

of the beautiful pastures awaiting my plea.

I cried here one as I lost a friend

but I know that one day we will meet again.

For blessed are those that enter the world of beauty

for their peace will be gained in eternal bliss of the forests whispering spirits.

Author's Note

forests whispering spirits are referring to the sidhe or faeirie folk and a reminder of the Tir na nOg of old. :) I hope you enjoy!

I couldn't not read a poem entitled 'Forest'... this is really enchanting, pure rhythm of nature. Blazing shadows across the forest life, deep, passionately green moss.

If I may suggest something, the last stanza might be more effective and would look better, if you moved ''of the forests whispering spirits'' to the next line with a great indention, so the word spirits more or less align with ''bliss''.

Lovely poem!

Thank you!
