The cabin in the woods
It is a secluded cabin in the woods
By a gently flowing stream and
Away from the hustle and bustle of the world
Away from the Madness
Away from the Cruelty of Man's inhumanity to Man,
Away from all the Insanity.
A world of peace and tranquility
Where it is possible to have happy and serene
Communion
With the Muse of Nature,
For long walks in the woods
Help clear the cobwebs
That clutter one's mind
And helps one rediscover a
Semblance of Hope.
Regards to: Philip Freneau, Sidney Lanier and Emma Lazarus.

Very dear Robert,
It's an excellent poem. You show the big difference between our awful present day life, and the peaceful life of nature.

Intriguing write robert. Seclusion from the outside world helps being alone with one's thoughts to write.
Well done.
