SHGPs

 

Skies of grey emotion

Heavy branches suspended in air

Everything so soulful

Individual hopes and dreams

Like a road that rides a ridgetop

And is beautiful in every direction

 

------------

 

Stop the car a minute, ok?

Here! Look at this tree!

Every leaf is green and healthy

Individual and free

Love is coming from this tree

And we can see it, can't we?

 

------------

 

Stopping at the stop sign

Hearing wind rush by

En route to lower pressure

I see no traffic coming

Looking in all directions

And proceed into the intersection

 

------------
