Forest Invitations
Moment of Silence Acrostic
Sacred stillness resides in the forest, but I hear
invitations for me, floating on the wind and
leading me to a secret spot where
echoing wild calls bounce.
Near the ground, on a fallen log I sit, listening, beneath winter
clouds weighted with moisture begging to
escape

~ Fired ~
— Ai Intrusion ~ Are you Next ~ Is Ai Evolution after your job? — Few workplaces haven't been affected. Ai is in supermarkets, at doctors' offices, and even monitoring farms. I just can't think of anything this machine is not getting into, can you? For instance: Education ~ Law and Tech jobs will one day have a major influence or be taken over by these inanimate machines, with accuracy and vigor. From mechanics' diagnoses to a wide variety of everyday jobs, including fast food workers, with this input having the ability to cut their unnecessary work hours. I'm certain all of us have been touched by this with our short stories and colorful headings, have you? Even comments are very questionable 'Non-Robot' insertions.

well done
Well done my friend. "... invitations for me floating in the wind...". Beautiful.
Nobody writes about nature’s sacred gifts like you do, Andrea! Simply beautiful!
Our minds think alike it seems- I also went to nature for the idea of silence! It seems fitting somehow🤗 “echoing wild calls bounce.”- all this space for noise to go!
The rain is coming. Love the last lines in your piece! ☺️
A delicate and evocative acrostic; I found the phrase "beneath winter" to be especially potent.
That was such a vivid and beautiful imagery! Loved your Acrostic so much!
This was quite enchanting! Love the one word final line!
A beautiful poem about my favorite subject, nature, and a great challenge entry!
Fantastic
Magnificent!
Such a beautiful poem, Andi! Made me sad but truly beautiful.
Beautiful and thought-provoking. I had a spot in the woods I could go to a long time ago. Really like the picture.
A pregnant pause.
Thanks for the read and comment!!
It is not an easy poem. Through it, I believe you convey a message of inner strength
This is so peaceful. Beautiful entry.
"Sacred stillness" caught me immediately, Andi! This is filled with delightful imagery. Well done. My favorite lines: "a secret spot where echoing wild calls bounce." Wow, nice!
