Happy Trees
A sliver of light penetrates the forest,
Wind ripping through in gusts.
Branches sway back & forth,
Leaves flapping in tandem.
A burst of sun breaks through,
Heat emanating from the source.
A giant hug from nature,
And happy trees rejoice at the contrast.
Wind ripping through in gusts.
Branches sway back & forth,
Leaves flapping in tandem.
A burst of sun breaks through,
Heat emanating from the source.
A giant hug from nature,
And happy trees rejoice at the contrast.
