Reflections

Mystery ahead

Shadows can’t hide

Each spirit drinks deeply

Endless dreams collide

 

Pathway of echoes

These woods speak out

Tomorrow surrenders

Darkened voices sprout

 

Moonlight’s reflections

Mirrors of light

Backwoods’ invitation

Shared from nature’s birthright

 

Night’s melody plays

Whispers gift-wrapped

Each note of harmony

Composed to adapt

 

Mystery now found

Morn’s grateful dawn

Spirits return to sleep

Dreams wait to be drawn
