The wind whistled through the forest, stirring the slumbering boughs in the topmost canopy of trees. Light filtered through the autumn leaves, creating a kaleidoscope of colors and bringing a hazy veil of sunshine to the mossy ground. Squirrels chittered in the trees, rustling their bushy tails as they dashed up into their homes. The chirping of birds filled the air, the melodious song creating an atmosphere of peace and harmony. Nearby a creek gurgled and bubbled, racing around bend after bend, flowing smoothly and softly. The forest buzzed with life, butterflies flitting through the air, bees swarming through the trees, deer darting through the bushes, munching on juicy berries, and frolicking on the soft ground.
