Omnipresent

Surrounded by nature within a forest dark and deep,

where secrets hide in shadows waiting as they sleep.

Where predators lurk looking for any telltale weakness,

in animals passing by thinking lives free from stress.

Ignoring the signs seen everywhere of danger about,

thought safe inside a bubble that keeps sorrow out.

You have to remain alert with eyes open all the time,

as mountains can appear out of nowhere most sublime.

Decisions must be made often at a moments notice,

as life depends on action when words can't express.

Enjoy the beauty of nature but also keep in mind,

that survival is kept balanced by forces often unkind.
