Nurse's Notion
She lived and died
Where she was planted
In the mountains, on this earth
Where silence filled her heart
Raining wonders through her
Dreams and whispering
Joy through her pains
She lived in the mountains
In the quiet of a place
Surrounded by pines, oaks
Adventures, warm and bold
Like the sigh of summer
The dance of falling leaves
Empty promises, melodies
Mysterious and breathless
Like their questions
She died in the mountains
In the still of the night
Where hearts were broken
As she exhaled her last
Breath, on the lavender
Smile of a memory, a thought
Prayed by the stranger
Who only knew she was gone
