We could not accurately identify
The two children in the photograph,
So we did the space-time hop,
and found ourselves to be;
Underneath that large, gnarled tree.
The picture had inaccurately described
The details we now found this place to embody:
Once a marsh,
Now entirely wetlands,
and Tree...
Was an island,
of its own.
Strewn of bark, reeds, and root from below,
was Woman nestled up to Tree.
She was not separate, but consisting entirely of,
&& bound,
To Tree.
And as we gazed, you and i.
Her weathered face, && sunken eyes,
did my spine begin to tingle,
and her eyes; a twinkle.
As she twisted her head,
fixed her gaze upon my own,
And we stared...
Deeply into each other’s wonder.
That was only moments ago.
