Lay Me Down

Lay me down

where Wild

rests her head

on pillows of moss

green with dew

and soft from dawn. Lay me down

where leaves

dance with sky and

Ravens trace mountains

woven with cedar

and fir. Lay me down

where mind

wanders free
a slow waltz to stillness
and roots

spoon my body

close as a lover.

Lay me down.
