I am the sister of the herbs
the trees
the flowers
I am the fey presence
from among the leaves
I hum and pulse
with wind and water
trilling
I am the song that weaves
from between the leaves
In shadow and dappled sunlight
in mountain moonlight
I flow
I am the eyes that watch
from behind the leaves
I walk the forest floor
leap through the understory
sleep in the earth
I am the life that breathes
from within the leaves
