I was walking alone in my forest one day, <br />Sleeping awake I went on my way, <br />And as I lookeed up the sun caught my face, <br />And my tears fell down in ribbons of lace. <br /> <br />The trees were entwined in the sky locked above, <br />In an extraordinary symbol of beautiful love, <br />And I walked all alone in my little wood, <br />And everything seemed just like it should, <br /> <br />Shafts of light stabbed all around, <br />Extending their arms straight to the ground, <br />Serene and peaceful the air hung in cloud, <br />Enveloping me in a wonderfull shrowd. <br /> <br />And all of this lay before me at hand, <br />Unfortunately though, no matter how grand <br />It all was a dream, it all was a fake, <br />Something I could never see awake. <br /> <br />I was walking alone in my forest one day, <br />Sleeping awake I went on my way, <br />And as I lookeed up the sun caught my face, <br />And my tears fell down in ribbons of lace.<br /><br />Mathew Lewis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/alone-in-my-forest-one-day/
