Foray
There is not so much left on this earth
there is long before the moon turns cold
come one last foray into the forest
the path is marked by bluebells. Go
and traipse the grass with open sandals
and see your brown hair an earthy tone
we must forge forward my little lady
now that it is quicker than to return.
I can see a clearing in the far distance
and though you probably canât see it yet
the bluebells will lead you like a mentor
the forest is not to dwell in past then.

I always admire your meter and how you keep the narrative behind the poetry.
Line 5 is my favourite as I love the exposure of nature combined with a Fathers caring eye.
