Array ( [sid] => 7913 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => the hill in the forest [time] => 2002-12-04 02:30:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => the hill in the forest
is wild and gently green
silent shafts of sunlight dance
on bobbing branches
creaking like grounded sailboats
in the summer breeze
as i walk, head lost in the sky
the spongy moss cuddles my feet
i could soon be swallowed whole
submerged in a new green world
but smiling still

i smell the peat fires on the moor
smoky brown visions
waft round me
and i see the bracken that will be
when the glorious ripeness is gone

all is a season within seasons
and everything

is right on time...

tramping to the hilltop
i find a corner
where tiny green worlds move slowly
lost far down where it's quiet

and feeling at home and dreamy
i lie and catnap in the sun
watching blue flickering skies
through half closed eyes

while the hill breathes around me

the hill in the forest
is wild and gently green
silent shafts of sunlight dance
on bobbing branches
creaking like grounded sailboats
in the summer breeze

the spongy moss cuddles my feet
i could soon be swallowed whole
submerged in a new green world
but smiling still

i smell the peat fires on the moor

and i see the bracken that will be

lost far down where it's quiet

and feeling at home and dreamy
i lie and catnap in the sun
watching blue flickering skies
through half closed eyes

while the hill breathes around me

still
