What did you find in the woods?


Yesterday's writing prompt started with: Thoreau wrote "We need the tonic of wildness, we can never have enough of nature." Then the question "What did you find in the woods?"

This is the pantoum that resulted from the prompt:

Inside nature's cathedral
with sun worshippers
reaching upward
to receive blessings
with sun worshippers
anointed by the rain
to receive blessings
rebirthed by the sun
anointed by the rain
in mossy silence
rebirthed by the sun
where timid heartbeats
in mossy silence
tread softly
where timid heartbeats
in a careful balance
tread softly
reaching upward
in a careful balance
inside nature's cathedral.
