Bid Me to Ease
Dip, swing, dip. My paddle cuts water blued.
The hot sun tans the brown, burnt, freckled bark.
Shrieks of my laughter echo through our park,
I breathe in warm air, breathe out gratitude.
My heart has been cleansed by the mother,
Her arms of shelter and tolerance wrap our park
And bids ease to those who find the waymark
Lended peace at last, I am made another.
The gloom overcomes the grounds as we land
And whilst collecting wood, the woods hath darken
Fresh dinner on. Seeing eye, willing hand.
Bear hang. Hang the bear. Eyes and ears sharpen.
Well hello trippers, safe in the lowland
And nigh the fire; lessons we harken.
