earth note 109

forgiveness is a lame snowfall

before the big melt
& cross-country skis
go washing down
a mad river maelstrom
thread
snow packed trails again
touch deepest quiet
breathe weeping ridges
find the last surviving hellbender
and river otter
seek higher ground
meditate whitetail
free

lives of solitude
before the dark
