my secret garden

the earth is helping me feel more rooted in my convictions

as maybe now -
wreathed in leaves,
thinking is overcompensating

the body needs to rest in green
- grow conviction -
from its rise fall breast

and notice
how when looking up,
the leaves
look like sage open palms,
foliate friends,
or a verdant veined paper -
bordering the puffy blue sky
with a soil grown safety
