No Mans Forest
As dawns early light softly strokes cotton candy skies,
Puzzle pieces of precise size share sights of early morning rise,
To lie witness on fire’s bristles of swiftness as she draws upon life.
Fresh eyes watch whilst towering tree tops are tossed side to side
Soulfully stretching stiff bodies to warm tired hides
Listening to winds’ secret song played through branches live and broken lines.
Wings colored of freedom are feathered to an angled tip,
Allowing liberating rides high above the confines in which others lie
A place where hooves of earthbound hounds boasting awry,
May dance across shared lands of benevolent bugs bedding within beastly bedsides.
