Wood Wide Web

Wood Wide Web Entwined beneath our feet Is a world so discrete A society laughing and crying Families living and dying Sharing all that sustains, Life coursing through their veins Touching, feeling and connecting Existing, surviving and protecting They feel when neighbors are hurt The air for them is the dirt They're roots hold the secrets of creation Overlooked by the greed of our nations March 2017
