The Forest

The forest, covered in a magical light

Lofty and bright, casting green waves of heat

A safe space, old and full of stories

Closed in but open for miles
Looking up at the tree leaves

Brown bark climbing to the sky

Fluttering green leaves

Filtering the lofty light
Each sound is like a part of the forest

Making it come alive with every critter

All the sounds blend together making a song

Every part of the song means something different
The golden light streaming through the trees

All of the green plants, glows like the color of life

Every way you look at the forest it looks beautiful

Magical as it is, every piece fits the puzzle of the forest

  • Skipping stones

    One word, one stone,
    Flat and smooth.
    One lake, one life.
    One stone
    Is flung at the water.
    The ripples spread out like a fan.
    Each ripple changes the water,
    Churning up the sand.
    It hits once, twice, again and again.
  • It Still Hurts

    I look just like you,

    Pale skin, light hair.

    Do you know my blood is a little bit different?

    You might not notice,

    The little things, that show I am different.

    You might notice an accent in a couple words,
  • Keep Them Close

    Friends are there for you if you ask,
    Best friends are there before you even think about it.

    With friends you have to talk,
    With best friends you can just sit side by side, knowing that they are there.
