Deep in the heart of it all

Deep in the Hafod Forest
losing yourself
for a day,
amongst the wooded tree's
and Winter's broken branches
getting in the way.

Imagining the sun
going down over
the hills at dusk
and feeling a sense of awe,
thinking why had I never
felt this way before.

Trapesing across uneven
and broken bits of ground,
listening carefully for a
distinctive animal sound.

Off the beaten track
and finding your own trail,
trying to get up some slope
slower than a snail.

Getting deeper into
the darkness where it becomes
blanket thick,
thinking that you better
turn back quick.

Looking through the
shaded tree's for the
slightest shred of light,
just to reassure yourself
that everything will
be alright.

Your not sure how
far you walked
but just keep on going,
without ever really knowing.

Stopping at a beautiful view point
for a well earned break,
a good picnic spot
of it you could make.

But there are treasure's hidden
in the Hafod,
under tree's that stand tall,
to reveal a waterfall.

The forest is deep
and many hidden places I recall,
but to watch the water gushing over
deep in the heart of all.
