“BREATHING WOODS – a crossover”

These woods are haunted son
don’t look so deep into them

but, father!
see, they are so mysterious;
beautiful
I can’t resist to explore through
look! the darkness and filtered sunlight foreplay;
many more to show

those trees and their intermingled shadows, it’s more than revealing

kind of invitation to adore
and,

listen,
the howls and chatter
a hyena laughs
an owl cries;
isn’t that amorous.

please;
stop son, shut up

but, father!
I heard my name in the babel

I said stop! !
son

father!
mind the wheels
look, ……………….

father, father
dad……………!!
someone help
he is. …..
nooo………

And the trunk roll over their truck.

smoke, and silence. ….
