I feel the soft

Grass beneath my fingers

Dissolving into dirt

Staring at the sky

Earth swallows

Me whole

The worms crawl through

Me blades of grass take root

In my chest

I am in mothers

Womb but I never

Lose sight of the sun

It shines on me with

The brilliance of life

Tree roots grow under me

Into my mouth

And nose the sun

Bids me rise

My brother tree

Lefts me from

Soil

Holds me in his mighty arms

Lifts me high

An offering

As I grow taller

I play with the

Baby clouds

They run and laugh

Taller

Through clouds

Past sky

In space I grab

Stars

Pop them like pills

Near the sun

I melt
