as a treehugger

looking for meaning, we see

small bubbly fractals

our lens can turn us

that’s why we should all do them

that you still love them

I breathed alder air

and your fractal being – now

out of your flower

sometimes luminance

it appears, just at my feet

to be a focus

hoya of Nana

revealing ancient forest

earth and sky as one

trees churn with current

crows in puddles and in trees

a focus within

I see you, right there

bring brown creepers to focus

through the moon’s dim light

just make sure that you

in your layers as they fall

clouds gather to speak

fire’s fingers dance,

another bloom; another

I grew it for you

get ready for night

like it is the very last

completing a proof

lift yourself with breath

and yet we experience

so we can perceive

we live in these loops

release the grip that it has

to keep it secure

however I tread

and your fractal being – now

to find what is deep

good morning my friend

that I can hardly breathe — gasp

glitches in water

the delta, I am

for this — the ground shaking breath

places for quiet

sometimes it’s the clouds

merging with the trees and leaves

a sign on your way

I feel this blanket

a head injury, a loss

is to leave no trace

I am so grateful

to the heights that we desire

memories’ bubbles

she removes her veil

just the other day, grape leaves

contrast is but life

separate you stand

that make you feel like you’re on

to find happiness
