Forest haiku

Just behind our house there is forest full of Eucalyptus trees.
  

Behind my house
A forest of eucalyptus trees
sing molodious songs.


 melodious music
soft, soothing for the ears
medicine for nose.

    Just reading this alone calms my mind. I can hear the rustling of leaves in the wind and the smell that only those leaves can bring. This was a breath of fresh air, Ma'am.

    This reminded me of the Eucalyptus trees in our school. We used to smell its leaves and play with the conical buds!
