To hear the sounds of nature is to hear the sounds of your soul for it is pure untouched unchanged for it is you and you are it for I am free to run to play to love for I am tall as a tree and as humble as an oak for I am fierce as the black wolf for you may enter my dark forest if you wish for when we meet I shall meet you not with bare teeth but with a settle smile so as not to bring about unwelcome and evil feelings in your eyes and in your heart for you have no need to fear me for the thought I am tall and fierce you need not to bow to me for I am a humble beast and so I bow to you for you are a traveler in my forest and so I offer my protection and lead you through for now you are out of my dark forest and I say goodbye  my beautiful friend for if you wish to enter my dark forest then a wolfish grain you shall meet again
