Forest Creatures

Forest Creatures

By R.e. Taylor

It doesn’t matter how pretty it is

How many trees or flowers

Or how the air smells on a Spring day

Those are an illusion of safety

Created for you to enjoy as you walk

However, the illusion is fake

There are many creatures hiding there

Behind the lovely trees and under the flowers

They are waiting for you to walk by

So don’t stop to smell the roses

Don’t admire anything in the forest

Just keep walking and don’t look at them

If you don’t you will be safe

And the Sun will shine tomorrow

Just in time for another walk

Don’t worry the forest will still be there

Waiting just for you
