Silent

Take a walk in my forest
Taste my rain-drops
Tell me secrets
I won't let them go

Take a walk in my forest
See my greening in the spring
Hear birds sing in my branches
They live here

Take a walk in my forest
Brush aside tall fronds
Of trailing fern

Oh Take a walk in my forest
Step softly and listen to the music of the silence
Breathe in the sweet scent of my earthy perfume
Lie back on soft pillows of moss
And watch the clouds
And catch the raindrops dripping from my leaves
