Just peace, perfect peace prevailed with ease.....
While hearing to birds singing in the breeze!
A Soul is gratified with thrill!
In the world of my fantasy - a dreams fill,
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

A man with a unique charm,
A Man with feelings warm,
A man made by character good,
Narrated me without any harm!
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

While walking through the thorny bush -
“I am in trouble head to toe, hush!
I am broken in heart and mind! Shush!
I am moved into tears”, said he in the bush!
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

'My nerves are rattling with horror,
My head is throbbing with terror,
My blood is boiling with fear,
My pulse-rate is increasiing' said he, oh dear!
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

Can I rise like a Phoenix from ashes oh dear?
Like Gandhi undid slavery in India?
Like Obama undid terrorism in America?
Like Mandela undid racism in South Africa?
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!
