The Pineatum
A day walking through the woods (specifically a Pineatum)
The Pineatum belongs to the following groups:
EF Welcome Center, The Word Tree and United KingdomThe twig snaps and a brief movement blurs
As the pheasant with a flash of colour disappears into the undergrowth
The great trees covering his escape as they swallow him up
Into the wooden wilderness
The freshness of the pine pervades the air
Crackling twigs burning of an effervescence of perfume
The smoke drifts lazily through the woods
Caressing the leaves as it passes
Sunlight filters through with beams of existence
Warming the matted floor and our souls
As the Spring begins to sing
Heralding the beginning of life for the birds and the beasts of the forest
Frantic preparation as the blossom begins to break forth
Time is precious before the little ones arrive
And daylight must be used to fulfilment
To ensure that nests are complete
The blossoms now break into a symphony of colour
Shedding their beauty across our eyes
Bright colours dance in our minds
And fulfil our pleasure
The sunlight is taken greedily by all
Finally banishing the Winter’s ills
As we all shed our dark masks
And the smiles of Summer beckon
