FOREST





FOREST

The vertically gigantic pine trees created a dense canopy, below which sunlight could not comfortably penetrate, always keeping the floor of the forest damp and cold. The ancient barks were stripped off its outer layers, rendering to the harsh seasons it has gone through.

The air was always stagnant, with most of the gusts broken down by the mighty resistance of the trees.   They were the guardians of what lied below them, from the brutal precipitation of the wet season to the intense sun’s heat in the dry season, anything under its shadow was sure that they would not face the first wave of attack.

Intertwining  streams from many different vein tributaries  joined up at the heart of the forest , where lush greenery  was at its best , and the spot where the grizzly  bears and the elks  and the moose’s of the  tundra met after a day full of feeding the patchy grasses on the wet rocks.

The rocky, steep cliffs formed a boundary to one side of the forest, beyond which neither the animals could climb nor come down. Along the cliff, a waterfall formed in which salmons rushed upstream. Hungry brown bears were ready to catch their prey as they patiently awaited their arrival upstream.

Below our feet, fallen decaying leaves were being consumed by thousands of maggots. The busy ants were systematically following a trail via which they got back autumn leaves and   stripped, dead tree barks back to their tiny dugout.
