(11” x 14” Mixed Media on Watercolor Paper)
Go to the forest
the trees will tend to us
the wildflowers are medicine
release the butterflies from your
palms & pray & pray
because here is the thing
we don’t want to die
we just want to learn to breathe again
there is a wolf glowing at twilight
she is beautiful & strong
we are eye to eye, hungry,
locked in on hope
breathing & howling
we survive together
there is beauty ahead
that is enough
