Darling Of The Woodland Poem by GREENWOLFE 1962

Darling Of The Woodland

Rating: 5.0


She's the darling of the woodland,
And I seek her endlessly.
In the mountains fields and meadows,
Searching every bush and tree.

A forgotten nature's angel
Sent from Heaven's land on high.
Just to charm the modern woodsman
And the birds when passing by.

I see flashes of her image
Just before I turn my head.
When I look, I then see nothing.
Only gold, and green, and red.

With its bright array of flowers
Peeping through its stand of trees,
In what portion of this kingdom
Does she drift on nature's breeze?

While I cherish every moment
In my search for nature's charm,
I have failed to calm her senses
And assuage her quick alarm.

If I find her, I will tell her;
There should be no fear of me.
For I only want to see her
As she is, or wished to be.

Just a darling of the woodland,
And my fairy tale so true.
Giving birth to my illusion;
That she might, by chance, be you.

Pure bliss, my foe, my friend, my colleague. How do you write poetry with no the effort than the breeze? Reading such beauty, Seeing images in my head, that do not do you justice, oh woe to readers dread. And even though i am young and have yet the world to see, i know, for one... your words shall forever enchant me. Please, do not stop writing, I am sure the world would weep without you to talk away its storms. Cudos!

I've read a few of your poems and I have to say that in the future if I am half the poet you are I will be immeasurably content. I think your ability to conjure such vivid images in the reader's mind is astounding and your poetry is beautiful. It flows so naturally and effortlessly. I absolutely loved this poem. =)
