The sun shone in dappled rays
Through the branches and the Verdent green leaves
Shading me as I moved through these life giving trees,
A soft rustle reminding me of its bliss and beauty,
A deer breaks cover darts away
And leave me with a sense so amazing
Of being within the depths of nature,
As I see rabbits leaping and jumping
While squirrels at their play race around,
Running up, down and through the trees
This place is a wonderland to me,
The New Forest breathes ancient eldritch spirituality
That embraces and envelopes me
And leaves me free to inhale and exhale
Solitude and leaves me mindfully in stillness,
I sense that this will be here long after humanity
Ceases to exist as it did well belong mankind arrived
And tried to cultivate and exploit the wild that is nature,
That was established by our creator
To nurture and to love,
Which we don’t do enough of
So let me give you a simple warning,
If we hope to see each new day dawning,
We need to change our ways
And treat this beautiful amazing nature
In a far kinder way.
