I Saw Her

She was born of a forest And rests her heart   Shallow in pooled dreams Dripping further than her tears Falling to soft earth. She eats rosed lilies And pickled cattails All while Her footsteps leave no absence known As her lithe nymph body melts into foliage. And her arms permanently reach Into the void of All unknowable things. Grasping at gossamer threads, Like thoughts that can't be spun together.
