this is a wood where I’ve lived for decades where great mossy walls have grown me in and talled me up in vines I’m sure - for my better good or yours. this is a wood where I’ve buried my beliefs in stink dirt and then unearthed them again for a feast, where I’ve puddle mugged the universe for wisdom where I’ve stung adam in the brain. this is a wood where I’ve transcended from seed to tree where canopied spies have saw me fit and brittle cornered and calling - a wood that has shown me longing and how to string tethered roots from my teeth for effect. |

If life is a wood, than this is the clearing. Peace. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

I'm glad I spied this near Druid fluidity. Weeds don't do well in woods, they need Sun. Hold fast to your roots and the puddle will continue to reflect someone special. |

OMG! I understand this one!!!  ...of course that assumes that my interpretation is correct, go figure. It is good to see you again ms-a. your words here bend a little bit around the trunk, but not so much so that i felt myself lost in teh self-same forest. i dug (no pun) the concept and actualization. nice. peace 'n hugs C |

~You folks are fine. Just,...you know, thanks for reading my stuff. For trying to see and understand. It amazes me that anyone would pause a moment to leave their thoughts behind to such, such,...uh a repeated theme/cry from me. *Peace you little poet creatures. (and c?,...woohoo hooray! thanks for (still) attempting).  . |

Wish there were words that i could use to describe the powerful state of awe your words have left me in. Thank you and hope many more posts have yet to come. |
