Sherwood

Author: Fenix_Oddriscoll

Ancient the trees,
trails like river,
meander through.

As my heart beats
so does the kestrel,
fly and free.

And under the oldest tree,
do I sit, stare and dream.
Scents of oak,
pine and cone.
Eternal afternoons.

Groves of green,
does the deer stir.
The olde oak,
remembers and weeps

Sisters birch
and fern recall.
Laments of those
that past untold.

My name in time,
scripted and eternal.
Return to me, for
Sherwood am I.

I grew up in a nature of forests, mountains, rivers, lakes.
I miss it all on this little rock.

Sea makes it up for me. Sea waves ashore, boat trips, snorkeling.
