And when my body lies on the grassy dirt floor and the weeds have enveloped my bones, the bugs will feast and flowers will grow, i will have truly become one with the earth.            

A nest for birds my ribs will be,

My hands a shelter from the wind,

My eyes a bowl for seeds and grain,

My hips are rooms as my spine a hallway,

I am here for them just as they are for me,

I am one with the earth.

I find the woods very captivating and I love how nature simply follows its own set of rules it’s very empowering.
