In the stillness of the forest deep, Where sunlight dapples through the leaves, I find a sanctuary from the world, In nature’s arms, where the heart believes.

The rustle of leaves, a soft wind’s sigh, Dances through the ancient trees, An orchestra of whispers, a timeless tune, Connecting my spirit with all that is free.

Each step upon the emerald path, Is a journey into the soul’s embrace, In the heart of the woods, I discover, The profound beauty of nature’s grace.

• Umberto Saba
