Approachable Elk Leaf Woman
elk leaf woman was inapproachable
black forest was fearful of her abilities and talents
her all-seeing ways had been predicted long before she arrived
we knew of her eons before she appeared at the edge of the oaks
we stayed our distance, even the rabbits and the fox
her energy traveled ahead of her in the form of an aura
we felt her parting the brambles, and we scattered
most of us hid, terrified of her capabilities
