Nature is our subject today as we explore from the perspective of something in nature giving giving it a voice.
Walking in the woods,
I came upon a scene, laid
bare for only me
to see, platinum moon beams
cast into forest's deep sleep,
a spotlight spilling
into mysteries
unexplored
Disturbing ancient charred tree
trunks, fallen trees, imposing
on the privacy
of a rare mushroom fungus,
heretofore unseen
Secrets kept among
old lichen and moss;
muskrats, owls and deer
camouflaged in shades of green
Disturbing ancient charred tree
trunks, fallen trees, imposing
on the privacy
of a rare mushroom fungus,
heretofore unseen
Secrets kept among
old lichen and moss;
muskrats, owls and deer
camouflaged in shades of green
and grey, newly awakened,
naked and still
naked and still
Aware of specters
in the glowing grotto clearing,
I might never be the same,
where likely no human stood
before, a unicorn's resting place
in the glowing grotto clearing,
I might never be the same,
where likely no human stood
before, a unicorn's resting place
I love a moonlight sonata,
moonshining on my face
moonshining on my face
