Forest Whisper

hmmm... i don't know. tell me what you think.

Whispers of the wind
spin tantalizing webs
of swooping motions
through the trees
and the soft scent
of greenery permeates
my nose as I breath in
the scenery just as I see it.

The Canopy is as alive
as I am thoroughly aware
that the everyday sights
which are unfolding before me...
Are not so everyday.

The pecking of a bird
making it’s home
and the chirping of crickets,
swirling through the air
and kicking up
the dust of my imagination
and sparking creativity.

I am home.

You've described the forest so well, vividly but simply so the words paint a clear, uncluttered picture.

Your metre's fine and some of the phrases are very realistic - especially that last stanza, (couldn't pick out particular lines in it, have to put all)

' The pecking of a bird / making it's home / and the chirping of crickets, / swirling through the air / and kicking up / the dust of my imagination / and sparking creativity.' - I think 'kicking up the dust of my imagination really is a special collection of words.

Thank you for sharing..

I have to agree with Melanie, is there nothing you can't write Dillon?? I mean, you go from a horrific warzone to the beast within, to some pretty steamy stories -- and now to the soft whispers of nature ... unbelievable. You are the Cybil of poetry... LOL.

Awesome write!!
