May the leaves swallow crisp the words escaped dangerous filth you never wanted to know.. Wind throw me down with skins of autumn shed between the tears ...and tear away anything you think may belong to me. Forget me And the roots that bury their heads trying to forget themselves. |

So deep, this. Beautiful in metaphor, heavy in reality, this takes on the quality of a family of trees, symbolism is heavy with this wonderful writing. I am reminded of the aspens all groves coming from a single source in some areas they become thinner, weaker, problematic... in areas rich in quality, they are more vibrant. Such is this poem. |

This has substance and force - enjoyed-  SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
