A collaboration between SG Holter and Elisa Maria Argiro Hesitating here, silent edge of this dark forest, I look beyond me, warm in the white fog. Seeing your heart, now residing deep within the ancient wood, is to know it is blessed, loved. *Silver tongue resting now in golden silence. Palms of soul upon moss and brittle bark. Animal song; scent of beasts approaching unafraid. Fierce peace. The opposite of a machine.* In the rising sap of silent trees around us, our deeply beating pulses listen, dance, smiling kisses at the shining stars, new planets. Eyes open, anima and animus press tightly And distance is no more. *"What language is Yours," I ask the still growing giants of Green. "Silence and its sister tongues Such as leaves dancing with the Breeze," they reply within the Gap between soft sounds and Softer ones. So we speak through breaths Exchanged, of nothing. Two souls afloat upon the stream Of Union with All. What is Cosmos, But "home"? Never a visitor. Never a stranger. Nowhere has anyone ever been Lost, or Away.* Humming your essence into my veins, in tune with the wordless languages of green lives and wind, listening among delicate flowers, sleeping here on the forest floor, wakeful and awaiting the next sound of your voiceless voice, wind words blowing through my long, curling hair, feeling the intention of your untouched touch, at home, just being.

In the Language of Leaves
A collaboration between SG Holter and Elisa Maria Argiro Hesitating here, silent edge of this dark forest, I look beyond me, warm in the white fog.

Animal song; scent of beasts approaching unafraid. Fierce peace.
