The Singing Trees



Wild Woman is protected
by the singing trees,
who soothe her pain,
breathe peace on her,
wrap her in protective arms,
offer her a branch
to help her hobble.

When she enters the forest,
she greets them:
"Sisters, I come in peace
and gratitude."
The trees lean towards her,
smiling.
Small creatures peep at her
from the branches.

A small white bird comes, singing.
It hops from branch to branch,
encouraging her passage.
She follows that bird
the whole day long.
