I’m a tree

 in my orchard of moods

suspended in time

introverted


I’m moved by the gust of wind

             calmed

by soundless sound


rooted I taste life

with the language of metaphysics


bark-free naked

                                 with crushed interior

shrouded in the mystery of duration


stained glass of leaves

in the cathedral of roots

moved by touch

                                

of untouchables                                                                      

                                    among people

in the middle of existence

                                           I’m a tree
