spring green

it doesn’t take much

to fall in love

what am I

standing on the mountain top…

a speck of dust

through shadowed valley, sunlit hill,

or crevice rarely seen

on all life lays

its carpet of green

the lingering echoes 

of my childhood

lost and never regained ...

will we ever learn

on the deserted island

just you and I

also green

in a mountain meadow

rise in gentle swells…

long may it stay lost 

from human eyes

beneath the canopy 

of closely-packed trees 

the calls 

of creatures 

long thought extinct

a corner of the garden 

springs to life

the arrow points

an enchanted forest

let's meet there

on the mountain... 

a giant rests
