i wrote the following poem on a whim
so... tell me what you think...

(note: the title of the poem is supposed to blend into the poem... so, it really starts with the title... "As I Wander Through The Wood, My mind..." etc.)

“As I Wander Through The Wood”

My mind wanders into the depths
Of that which speaks softly
Beckoning to my senses
Thoughts seeping-
Through the labyrinth of my mind

I delve into the cascading vines
The secret forest
Blanketed with dark wet mosses
That which envelops the lush sanctuary

The mystery that is enclosed within
Towering trees, swelled with inquiry
Branching out, rooted down
Reaching, holding, seeking, knowing

Treking through the tangled wood
Captured by the wandering deliberations
Awaiting eminent death
But awakening to new-fangled life

Finding my way through the perfumed flora
I place my mat, I lay my head
In the lap of the supple foliage
Knowing that here, I grow
Here, I live
