A Forest Filled With Light

[runningbrook]

Of Stars and Moons:
A Forest Night

In a forest filled with light
Though the sun
Was none

Of stars
And moons
In a forest filled with light

Of rustling leaves
Of dark green ferns
And noises in the brush

Of ferns
And fronds
In a forest filled with light

Of stalking predators
Pouncing for the kill
Silent and still

Of shadowy shapes
Lurking out of sight
In a forest filled with light

(I'm adding this part)
Of canine shapes
Running through the brush
Hunting as one

Of wolves
And howls
In a forest filled with light
(End of part I added)


Tis a forest at it's hight
A forest at night
A forest filled with light
