Appalachian Trail moment

CBD Day, Warwick, NY

 

in the sun 

even a dry sky

dusty dank

at squirrel midst

 

or sometimes must imagine the creatures

shade wound

 

things fallen

and a woods honk

 

little walls a monument

of hands unseen, now gone

 

half eaten

and by touch of breeze

flutter

the trail branches off

 

it’s up with the eyes

and bright the leaf fallen

 

open to the air

 

a creek through where

all made

by hoof

by paw

by me

 

it’s one after the other

 

the unknown bird chimes in
