Dreaming in the Woods (Free verse) by Antares42
Walking alone in the woods on a warm and humid night
I wonder if they can see.
The moonlight guides me on my journey to nowhere in particular
where I hear the crickets, the breeze playing in the trees, my footsteps
invading their peaceful world.
Do these creatures care if I find solace in their home?
I don't ask them to pamper me,
I don't ask them to provide for me,
I just ask for them to accept me into their world.
A world where everybody is appreciated for adding to the community,
not subtracting from it.
A world where everybody has meaning and value.
A world where we all belong, a world at peace.
