Notes About The Poem

Autumn Storm - Collaboration With Chris Green

Trees outside are raging
anger screams through
branches down to leaves
twigs chastise twigs
     As bark grumbles
     rough emotions
     suppressing the trunk
     seeking the root of the problem
          Burrowed deep between toes
          of saplings
          treasures hide
          or terror manipulates 
     Trembling in the darkness
     earthen enclaves
     soiled decisions pending
     new growth awakenings
               Tentatively tentacles
               reach and entangle
               twine and talk
               awareness grows stronger
Groundbreaking visions;
appear as sunlight
warms this destination
and life again begins
