spoken softly are the forest words
birds chirping in the foreground
the rustling of the stream
ducks on the banks
whispers of fall are near
colors of the seasons change
vibrant hues of gold and red
hushed sounds as the leaf falls
God’s inspiration for the morning dawn
granted nature another years keep
animals scurry before the snow falls,
to find food and shelter from the storm
seasons change is the circle of life
another year passes as time goes on
listen to the forest it tells a tale
trees waving good-bye in silent prayer

Indescribable
That was just a beautiful poem. It was very well presented, and the visuals were astounding. It's a shame I didn't see the picture that inspired this, but your words were vivid enough.
