I robbed the Woods

I robbed the Woods

I robbed the Woods-
The trusting Woods.
The unsuspecting Trees
Brought out their Burs and mosses
My fantasy to please.
I scanned their trinkets curious-I grasped-I bore away-
What will the solemn Hemlock-
What will the Oak tree say?

Animals and Nature Regret and Guilt Trees, Forests and Mountains
