I walked on the moss
_____
At your bare feet, my brother
_____
I felt the tremors
_____
In the shadows and the nights
_____
Under torrents of rain
_____
When the heat lays siege
_____
Whatever the colors
The seasons, the outlines
You link up like a circle
_____
From your woods, earth to sky
_____
The air of a chapel
_____
The creaks, the cracks
_____
Where shelters light up
_____
Silent in autumn
_____
And the silvery web of the night mycelium
_____
The long ballets of jays
_____
Under the dancing leaves
_____
All the way up toward the tops
_____
The swaying of the branches
_____
The acorns that dance
_____
Smile at the evidence
_____
Running backward from our cities
