Not a leaf trembled,
Not a soul moved,
Ghostly silhouettes,
Of large trees loomed,
Imaginations at a distance,
Melted into darkness,
The moon shrouded,
By sinister clouds,
It seemed all hope was lost,
Until, abruptly!
The moon light broke through,
Emerging victorious,
Spilling its radiant warmth,
A strange exuberance,
Pervaded nature,
And bore testimony,
Of a resilient life!
