Song Of The Forest

A Nature Poem Prompted By A Friend

Image from Julie Pacheco

Introduction

This was inspired by this image from Julie Pacheco and when I shared it my friend Julie completed the statement with these words:

"And to listen to the music of mother nature β™₯️"

I know Thin Lizzy had a song called "Mama Nature Said" and it is an excellent song that opens with these words:

My Mama Nature said

"It's murder what you've done"

I sent you forth my brightest world

Now it's nearly gone

The Julia Roberts piece from "Nature Is Speaking is also pertinent.

For this, I have applied by personal Pantoum form

Song Of The Forest

Under The Green Of These Tall Trees

Listen To The Song The Wind Makes

Hear The Song Of The Forest Breeze

Rustling Of Leaves, Forest Awakes

Listen To The Song The Wind Makes

Blowing Through The Grass And Flowers

Rustling Of Leaves, Forest Awakes

Hear The Rain Fall, Gentle Showers

🌳🌲🌳

Blowing Through The Grass And Flowers

The Wind Sways Them, Ballet Dancers

Hear The Rain Fall, Gentle Showers

Weeping Willows, Nature's Banners

The Wind Sways Them, Ballet Dancers

Under The Green Of These Tall Trees

Weeping Willows, Nature's Banners

Hear The Song Of The Forest Breeze

    Beautiful, especially for me - because I love the forest and I love nature and when I was small, I used to climb the tree in our backyard and sit up there and read books and watch the insects climbing along the branches.

    Gorgeous imagery! "The wind sways them, ballet dancers" was my favorite line for sure - immediately makes me imagine the wind making the trees dance.

  • Some lovely thoughts on nature.

    A poem for the ages due to the message. I resonate with the quote and will be sharing the video. Thanks for writing and sharing Mike!
