Kit Kelen #1276 - lean on a tree

1276
lean on a tree


breath catches me there

leans mountainward

grass whispering
birch leaves turn

on the mountain

leans into the worldwhirl

this one’s stopped
half way up
half way down

still sunward
roots infernal

into the stillness we lean
feel sap flow

pressed by the nowhere-else-air

and on
in such socks
as know the way

headlong
fall in

lean to a breeze
we paid for this weather

sheep lean
and wolves once
bears would

lean stone sinking
on a single idea

and as for the bends
lean in
and on

the blueberries begin

lucky to see a star
when there is no night at all
