The woods and river cleansing and revitalizing a woman's soul is beautifully described in your haiku. The healing quality of nature is emphasized here and it's something that I believe is getting lost in our modern ways. Thanks for reminding me of the forests joys.

As a writer a poet could get lost in the forest of writing poetry. There are so many thoughts and gestures that could come from sitting out in a forest. The tranquil setting in the forest could be therapeutic to a weary soul and ideas for beautiful poems can be birth

This tree-hugger five-seven-five, Forest Poet's Home, has the right format and gives tree-mendous credit to the forest to reignite the poet's deep rooted creativity. Wood we have it any other way?

This speaks the truth, true feeling, how forest's beauty mends the poet's melancholic mood and how again his soul is renewed; well said, well done. DR ALCREATOR

I love walking in the forest. It certainly is healing. This poem draws the reader in to reflect on how uplifting the walk through the forest has been for them, some will resolves they need to return and so may wonder how that might work for them. Even feeling drained, the forest fulfills. How magic and spiritual the forest is. Thank you for the tribute to the forest. A lovely poem
