Campfire Poems II

Posted on Jul 1st, 2007 by

I want to be like the forest vapor
it the earliest morning
hovering, smiling upward

the sky, smoothly blue
busy with its own affairs
inverted multiple chasms
unhesitatingly far away
playing puzzles with the green
simpleness made from
detailed complexity

nature stirs and sweeps
and never asks for explanations
so I will try not to give any

I really like this description, I always wondered how to describe that interrelationship. This is perfect.
