The Man in the Woods (Part Two: Not What It Seems)
by Aidenn A. Spelling
II. Not What It Seems
But all talk can be poison
With noone to examine proof
Who knows what lurks within
Who knows why he is aloof
He starts his day to greet the sky
And sings as the bluebirds sing
He feels the cool misty air rises
And takes in the sunlight’s peering
He waters his strange plants and trees
A marvel no one could tell from outside
A tiny paradise he likes to consider
A gem he takes care of with great pride
But one day while playing with friends
A girl finds her way into the shadows
A dare she dares not seek that day
To behold upon the gate that’s narrow
She loses her way inside the woods
And takes forever to come out
Her friends tremble with fear
As whispers from inside say “Get out!”
