Glistening Forest 

Sunlight streams through the towering trees filling the forest with a warm light. Birds chirp, singing their morning song. The forest is waking up. Dry dirt crumbles under my feet. A beautiful bird with bright, colourful feathers swoops over me, forcing me to duck. Tiny insects emerge from the soil and crawl quickly away. A slight breeze rustles through the trees. I shudder. Cold, crisp air floats through my nose, making me sneeze. The flax bushes whisper to each other as another gust of wind rushes through the forest. Suddenly a cloud covers the sun and rain starts to fall through the tall branches. I pull my coat close around me and run towards the batch. Brown, battered leaves crunch under my feet. I stumble over the roots. The trees start to disappear behind me. I rush through the front door of the batch. Home again!
