Life in a Greenwood Thicket
Moisture accumulates in the dense woodland
Aromas of sage creep out and free their
Sweet remedies into the warm air
The sky tenderly kisses my brow
Before its tears stain my face
Trees are gently pushed- they sway in unison
To the rhythm of the rain
Sirens from the clouds warn of a passionate quarrel
As raindrops caress the pond.
Electricity floods through the earth
Igniting broken leaves to scatter,
Guided only by a soft breeze
