Nature Intervened
And so it is,
the grass tied
knots around
our ankles.
The trees spread
their limbs to
bind our arms
to our sides.
The critters living
between our toes
came out and
pinned our nails
to the earth.
And so it is,
Nature and all
her beauty
wanted us stuck
in that moment
so that we may
release what binds
itself tightly to
our torsos.
I don’t know
about you,
but I breathe
a lot easier now.
Your turn.
