Golden Grove

A seed planted
down deep and dark
fed and nourished
by sunlight
and rain
sprout breaks
through
little by little
season to season
year by year
the seedling grew
into a
towering tree
reaching the
sky
Raven
at home
in the
tree top
new seed
pods sprout
dropped
here and there
carried by
Raven
far and wide
to begin
again.
