Question
Did you have any time to stop and enjoy the beauty of the forest?
Solution
I was on my way to hometown. Even though, I didn’t have much time to stop by the forest, I enjoyed the limitless beauty for a moment. When I entered the forest, the long grown trees made a canopy over my head. The leaves almost covered the sky. The gentle breeze spread the refreshing smell of damp soil. Every now and then there was a sound of birds chirping. I left the forest soon but it was an unforgettable experience.
