I Extend

I breathe the wind of trees The blade of grass swaying back and forth The chlorophyll in the tiny cell I swim the depths of seas Collect oxygen through my slitted gills The pennies in my wishing well I walk along the streets Under guise of endless hair, all shapes and colors And guard the void within my shell I live a life of no alarm I won’t pretend I do no harm The bond I share with those I seek Extends beyond my farthest reach
