The song of the forest <br />The wind in the boughs <br />That whistles through leaves it does blow, <br />It fills my heart <br />Like the love of a friend <br />That I had lost long ago. <br /> <br />The sound of the woodpecker <br />Tapping a trunk <br />The rhythm does echo around, <br />It fills my heart <br />With the beating of life <br />And always so sweet is the sound. <br /> <br />The chaffinch does sing <br />From the tallest of trees <br />And he's always hidden from view, <br />Calls for his mate <br />From the branch up above <br />The other birds sing along too. <br /> <br />The bees on the flowers <br />Are humming a tune <br />The melody rings through the air, <br />All of its players <br />In time with each other <br />The song of the forest I share.<br /><br />ANDREW BLAKEMORE<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-song-of-the-forest-2/
