My Forest
March 14, 2010
I know every hill
Every rock, every thorn
Every step to avoid
So as not to trip
I know when each tree will bloom
I know none by name
I’ve memorized birdcalls
I converse, though them I do not see
When rumbling rolls of thunder
And whistling winds come through
I know which trees will waver
I know which leaves will fall
I have been here so little
Yet I’ve been here so long
I’ve swerved around each trunk
And I’ve ducked under each bough
