Beating heart of the woods
November 17, 2013
Once when weary,
I stood and heard
the woods around me
grew unhurt.
And the moonlight
that shone through cracks
in the leaves
showed me vines and their weaves
and there I heard it
the song of the woods
ever so silent
like no other could
I found what I heard,
in that clearing where I stood
was the beating heart
of living wood.
