Singing of the Forest Woods...

Copyright 1980 Dorrance & Company by Mark E. Temme (a prophecy)... "Singing of the Forest Woods": The singing of the forest woods, bids me to go and embrace them, there singing colors of placidity, enhance their beauty of truth... Sitting on the soft brown fallen leaves, I can lie back and forget, forget of human-made sorrows, that "crush" upon the human soul...The sun sparkles its "truth" across the sky, its rays penetrate through the forest, then dance upon my tired face, lightening my heavy load... For I know and can sense, the sorrows and pain that lie ahead, that no dancing sunrays can erase, when half of mankind shrieks in despair... And I, "afraid" of my part, that i must play on center stage, for my God "bids" me to march, unward to change a wrong... But i know my tired hands, can summon up the strength of new, because i can hide away in some woods and "extract" from nature God's wisdom... Even though I, too, often forget the purpose of my Creator's plan, and spend too few hours in the woods, my spirit does not desert me...
