In the depths of the forest, where shadows dance like ghosts

The trees reach for the sky, like hands trying to hold the sun close
Nature's symphony surrounds me, a chorus of whispers and hums
The rushing river sings softly, like a lullaby that gently strums

The moon hangs above, a silver lantern in the velvet night
Guiding me through the darkness, like a beacon burning bright
Stars twinkle like diamonds, sprinkled across the midnight blue
Each one a symbol of hope, of dreams that may come true

The rustling leaves whisper secrets, like old friends sharing tales
Their voices a soothing melody, like the sound of wind in sails
A symphony of crickets chirp, a lullaby that lulls me to sleep
Their song of the night, a promise that the dawn will creep

In the forest's depths, I find solace in nature's embrace
A reflection of my own soul, a tranquil and sacred place
Where the earth's heartbeat echoes, like drums in the night
In this sanctuary of peace, everything is all right.
