THE DARK GREEN FOREST
By James Phillips

As I walked down the path in the Dark Green Forest
My parents and me.
Who watch me grow to the man I will be.

One day we came upon a fork on the path.
In The Dark Green Forest.

I told my parents
I must travel down this path in the Dark Green Forest.

With sadness in their eyes.
Knowing I was becoming the man I would be
And knew I must travel on this path in the Dark Green
Forest.

One day I saw a fair woman with dark green hair like the Dark
Green Forest.
Soon we walked hand in hand on this path in the Dark Green Forest
Our love became a light to guild us on
The path in the Dark Green Forest.

She gave me a child with dark green hair.
So that there would be three
To walk down the path in the Dark Green Forest

We watch the child grow too the Woman she would be.
With dark green hair like her mother.
On the path in the Dark Green Forest.

One day we came upon a fork on the path in the Dark Green
Forest.
She told us she must travel down this path in the Dark Green
Forest.

Sadness came to me, watching the child who had to leave
And hoping she would meet a man like me.
On the path in the Dark Green Forest.

One day I stop and told my now gray hair Fair woman
“I am very tired and must rest for awhile“.
With tears in her eyes, she laid me down.
Knowing she would bury me there
In the Dark Green Forest.

The fair green hair woman knows
That the Dark Green Forest offers many things

Fear
Loneliness
Danger
Happiness and Love
But it’s the only place to travel.
To become the people we must be
In the Dark Green Forest.
