I admit it I love trees! I think they are remarkable and each one unique. I always feel better once I have been on a walk through the woodland. The noises of the rustling leaves, the bird nestling or flying to their nest. I wrote a poem based on this. Here it is.
Breathe In
A poem to focus on the joy of nature at this
difficult time. How it can bring a sense of peace,
joy and improve our wellbeing during lockdown.
Walking through the forest,
Breathe in,
the air is fresh,
The birdsong warbles,
From trees above,
Singing blithely a contented song.
The path meanders,
Its journey of discovery,
Branches reaching,
Grasping the forest floor,
Snowdrops dancing,
Gently in the wind,
Listening to leaves rustle and bustle.
Shifting light,
Every step newly discovered,
Sky beyond,
Clear blue hue,
Trees colossal reaching the sky,
The main stem standing robustly proud.
Green,
Herbaceous vegetation,
Providing breath of air,
Oxygen needed,
Breath deep the air is clear
The soul finds rest and peace here.
