WOODLAND COURTING

 

Birds are singing high up in the sycamore

Squirrels busy themselves in the chestnut.

Trees sway in the breeze

Limbs outstretched towards the sun

As in the dappled sunlight,

We walk hand in hand below

Slowly wandering the wood

Through shadows and the sunshine

The humming wings of insects

Our only company

In the shade the spiders silk spun web
Awaits its unsuspecting pray

While I am caught in a different web

On a perfect afternoon

That I wish will last forever
