The solitary forest path.
The solitary forest path.
I want to walk through the pathless woods.
There will be no other sound,
except the sounds of shedding leaves.
The tall trees will stand like ghosts.
An eerie silence will prevail there
and the short grasses will be like spears.
My heart will be throbbing
and the legs will be fatigued.
But the eyes will be alert and frightening.
There will be a green patch in the deep.
Few wild flowers will be tossing their heads.
I'll set up a forest camp
to get a sound sleep.
