Peace and beauty moves,

through the heart and soul of you,

If you'll just let them.

 

If you'll just let them

squirrels will sleep in your walls

in beds of acorns.

in beds of acorns

noisily making babies

wee hours of the night

relived at a glance

i pause to collect myself

closing my eyes, gone

 

 

Closing my eyes, gone...

Willow the wisp rides the wind,

Touching Earth softly.

touching earth softly,

then with a firmness and grace

the cat moves fog-like
