In the twilight of my dreams, I found myself wandering through a vast forest. The trees were ancient and towering, their branches stretching towards the heavens like outreached hands in supplication. As I walked deeper into the woods, I felt an overwhelming sense of connection with everything around me.
The air was filled with the sweet scent of blossoming flowers, and the sounds of birdsong and rustling leaves accompanied my every step. It seemed as though time had slowed to a crawl, allowing me to savor each moment of this enchanting journey.
