Revived

Sunlit valleys
Seen below
A hillside full of ferns
Unfurling in newness
Tree trunks so thick around
Covered in green garments of moss
Bleeding Hearts thick on the ground
Dimly outlined paths
And peace all around
A bubbling path side stream
The particular sound of a Woodpecker's beak in motion
Gentle rustle and whisper of the breeze
Delicate imprints of forest dwellers on the path
Buds in bloom awaiting a Bees kiss of life
The sound wings make as a bird takes flight
Stumps with fairy hollows
Glades of breath catching beauty
There is nothing that mars this
My thoughts quiet
My heart pumps my life's blood
Through my veins
And I can feel it
I breath in the clean air
The scents of the forest
And I am revived
There is so much unity here
It is the feeling I crave
All working in unison to give and take and grow
And it gives to me to, takes from me
Helps me grow
The Ferns, the fairy hollows, the trees
