Letting Growth Have Its Way

Letting Growth Have Its Way 

How many times the light changes
in the day—shines— 
casts the forgotten 
back to shadow. 

In the hills I see
trees and they are 
lovely. I sometimes 
weave a way through 
their canopies and roots. 
But what compels me 
from this present distance 
is their collective shape— 
a body laid out in total 
surrender to earth and sky. 


Oh, if my body was that body. 
If I could lay myself down, 
let growth have its way.
