Wild Green

I want to lie down

among the fern

where moss thrives

and defiant light

slips through selfish

oak leaves feeding

on the sun …

Let the wild green

nourish my spirit with resilience.

We need that wild green right now.....staying indoors, I do miss it. But it is good to know it is there.

This is stunning in every sense of the word, Susie!!💝💝

Never thought of oak leaves as selfish before this. Wonderful imagery!

Gorgeous! And may it be so.

I can smell the undergrowth in this poem, Susie, wild green and thriving.

I so often want to lie in deep grass or on a mossy bank or ferny bower. Love this so much.
