Footpath

o dreamer! 

the more you strive to see 

the more you awaken 

to that silence 

punctuated by 

a stream 

a rugged hillside 

the roots of plants 

panthers, parrots 

monkeys, turtles 

and an aspen 

exploring mother goddess earth 

along footpaths 

majestic big waters 

and her waterfall skirt
