Spirit of the Forest (poem)


(For my dearest dryad)

Hark! Hear you that faint rustling sound?
The Spirit of the Forest treads ‘pon this ground.
Pay close watch and you perhaps might see
Her nimble form frolicking in yon tree.

With a dance in her gait
And a gleam in her eye,
She swings from the branches
Ever-so spry.

And when the night falls
And the moon strikes her glade,
Quiet she is
But seldom afraid.
