A pretty rhyming poem inspired by a walk in the woods. The forest trail is brought alive with sound and sights imagery. The girl, as she walks by herself, feels the newness of an experience she has for the first time. So she gets scared at the shuffling wind and ruffling leaves.

" She wants to be brave, but feels afraid"
The invariable presence of the cell phone is taken away to show how alone she is in the wooded thicket.
The relief and release of tension are shown by the ellipses in the last line, which let me understand her mind. There is humor and anxiety at the same time. It shows how fear can fool us and we become its easy hostages.

Imagery-
Imagery brings a lonely girl on a forest trail to my mind and I can hear the sounds of the bush as well.

It flows well.
