Stand amongst a pinetum,
Stay quiet,
Listen.

Indeed, they speak
Whisper and rustle.

December burns
Crisp and crackles
Leaves fall
Surround their castle.

Shhh don't speak
Just breathe...

Wait

Hear secrets trickle
To those
With nature's passion.

nice!! it says a lot of how i feel about nature. particularly trees... there's something moving about them... particulary the great big ones... they've seen so much... and they live... if they could speak just imagine...

Did you write this?

Yes, I'm not too happy with the last line though...
