tall forest treetops,
wide sky and lush maple hills-
where my eyes linger
~0~0
where wildflowers,
bathe in mountain rain -
my words breathe
~0~0
on bed of needles and
blanket of thousand moss,
the moon beguiles

on bed of needles and
blanket of thousand moss,
the moon beguiles
~0~0
under towering pines,
beside river of hundred leaves -
my feet rest
