every tree, stone, stream,

breath, wind, living thing

congealed, composite!

part of her, all agreed

to build this being.

all her life, each asleep

all hidden underneath.



but with the last smile, 

blink & sigh, each element

comes alive.

-----

but not to leave, never

alone.

the earth around

is her home.
