Mysterious Forest

-

Lightly, stepping into oblivion

The skies overhead are shadowed

Gentle sighs within this haven

Fading as the echoes that followed

Walking on amidst the greens

Magical sprites in the silent morning

Dancing to a serenade of dreams

Singing to the requiem of eternity

-

Quietly, stepping across the stream

To the rippling waters, a smile

Reflected hopes in a flickering gleam

Time has never been more worthwhile

Right now, throwing caution to the wind

Into the woods yonder, brimming with promise

Leaving not a single clue behind

Vanishing without a trace, infinitely mysterious

-

Close your eyes

Wander on into the misty light

Lead by those gentle sighs

Away now, slowly out of sight

-

Never to turn back
