And who is this aliveness

I am.

Self-contained heat and passion
I am like the ember in the fire pit
End of the day, heard so much
Took it all in and gave heat back.

Before becoming ashes again; one with earth


Seed.

Self contained wisdom and beauty
Then came the sun and the rain
And the dark soil softened my skin
And I burst forth a white crocus

Too soon picked by a child; happy to be chosen.

Song.

A woman wrapped her arms about a tree
and sang me all of once
I was released and returned to heaven
by way of the wind

What more could I ask for?
