A Walk in the Woods
A Walk in the Woods
I walked
Along
The creek
Today,
Tracks
And foot prints
Touched
The way,
And as
The forest
Closed
Me in,
This thought
Became
My only
Fin.
To touch
Her bark
And know
Her limbs
To stay
Until
The moonlight
Dims.

Author's Note
Waiting is timeless, and sometimes waiting for intimacy, closure, consideration, being listened to, reciprocity....all the things that make life seem real....becomes a flicker of hope.....other times.....a bonfire on the snow.
All writing remains the property of the author. Don't use it for any purpose without their permission.
