These Leaves of Grass

While some inherit wealth, I inherit dirt. I find beauty in what springs from the Earth. These lives that bring with them so much worth. In this place, I am free from all my hurt. I spend my time underneath the trees. Humming along into the sweet autumn breeze. The essence of nature is what I want to seize. I need to form these leaves into the most natural poetry.
