Night Forest Poem by Custous Angelus
Night Forest
The once welcoming forest is no more when night comes
The forest casts away her friendliness
And instead clothes herself in darkness and fear
A night forest is a dark and forbidding place
Our eyes unable to see through the thick veil of dark
Only feeling the movements happening just outside our field of vision
The chirping of the birds ominous
The rustling of wind malicious
The snapping of the twigs startling
Even the smallest of noise scares us
The once familiar trail is no more
The once familiar trees are all lost
Whoever enters the night forest will have to endure
The grim atmosphere that she poses
Beware of the night forest and her thick veils of darkness
It will not be the forest that welcomed you earlier
So enter at your own risk
Very apt description of a forest at night. Loved it. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for your beautiful comments, I totally appreciate and am grateful for them. Humbled in your poetical presence. RoseAnn

I once spent a very long night, alone, in the forest...and it was exactly as you have written. Ever so glad was I when the dawn broke and returned me to the loveliness of the woods I loved in the daylight.... thanks for sharing, and taking me back down that path....PEACE
