POEM:
FOOTSTEPS, by J. Amber Griffin
Footsteps beneath the branches
lead to
a descension into deepness
A haze of heaviness clears
revealing
contemplative consciousness
Sensations of fervor
writing
the beginning of the story
Noting the colors, textures, shapes
inviting
all of us are welcomed
Curiosity and admiration
adorning
the kinship between us
Flowers grow, petals fall
planted
are new seeds of growth
Rising up together
not fickle
determined by the delight
Continue chapter by chapter
cyclical
until death it doesn’t part
Where sunlight lacks
shadows
protect another haven
Often unseen is the balance
the perfection
too often strived for
Connection bears witness
intrinsic
a feeling of the truth
Staring at starry skies
release
and simply remember
Before ego was eco

And memories,
Of what could have been.Branches out...
