Woods

<3

Peaceful, Quiet

 

Surrounding is green,

Never felt this great

Feeling serene

 

The sent fresh as heaven

Ground soft as pillows

Trees swaying, strong wind

Surrounding are willows.

 

Audible is a waterfall

The sound almost mesmerizing.

No more thoughts of unhappiness

Feeling almost tranquilizing

 

The rocks are cold from rain, some wind

Higher to the top

Exploring the woods more

Never want to stop.

 

But as the day comes to an end

As does the feeling peace.

But the woods are always here

For the feeling release.

Very nice poem. You've described a peaceful nature scene well enough for me to want to go there. The last stanza could use some work though.

But as the day comes to end
in the afterglow of peace
The woods are always here
with its feelings of release. (Just an idea, but you get the picture)

I think sent in the beginning of line two should be spelled scent. Nice job.

The title caught my attention. Yeees, very inviting words. "Exploring the woods more. Never want to stop." That about says it all. Oh yes, I like the thoughts in the final stanza-- like we have to leave the peacefulness of it all but they are always there for us. That's cool. I read this literally and also symbolically like the woods are a good friend as well.
