Her Balance

 

Featured image: Her Song - She Has Always Marched To The Tune Of A Different Drummer


She dances with
     The earth
She spins with the earth
She is alive
She hears 
     The trees talking
She smells wildflowers
     Sweet sweet fragrance.
And she feels in balance
     With the rocks on 
     The shore

Earth's Weaving


 Featured image: North Shore Canada

Thinking of a weaving
of sunlight, dew, air and
     trees
a weaving with the air
     I breathe
a weaving of magical spaces
     for birds
weaving spaces for
     the webs of
     spiders
transparent
     yet making
     rainbows
     with the
sunlight
thinking of Earth's weaving
