A Night in the Forest

It was a beautiful night in June
The Moon was glowing
The stars twinkling
as they silently worshiped him
A lone figure strode along the forest floor
Unaware of the many eyes watching him
Not human,
but rather the eyes of the trees
They whispered among one another
Making sure that he could hear them
but not make out their exact words
They were nasty all right
but they still watched over him
Eventually the figure came to stand over a stream
and gazed down into its deep telling eyes
He couldn't take his eyes away from it
Layed out before him were all the mysteries of man
If he wanted he could but touch it
and everything would be revealed to him
but the stream vanished before he had a chance
and he was left pondering over another mystery
Before the water had disappeared
It had shown him a picture of a creature
One that he had seen before in story books
They called it the "Night Walker"
They said he walked the nights
Watching over everything
and rumor also had it that he and the Moon were quite close
No one had ever glimpsed the Night Walker
but he was said to come at midnight
A shiver crept up his spine
as he felt the ground beneath him quiver
The Night Walker was coming

That's very cryptic, Sam. I'm thinking Neil Armstrong, or maybe even Mick Jagger! You don't think the Night Walker is sexy, do you? That would be very naughty.

Haha! The Night Walker sexy? No way!
He's supposed to be like a mythical creature. Have you ever watched Princess Mononoke? Good movie:) That's where I got the idea from.

Uhm, basically I'm usually on all the time. Although, there are days when I'm either grounded, or else I'm only on during school hours. What time is it there?.... that was a lame question.
