California Redwoods
In the forest one is invited for rest
no one asking for answers pitching proposals or beating bids
a sacred space
a shelter in the arms of wise governesses
it’s soft at the base
these Grand Dames of great wisdom
silently imparting such soothing insights
such soft steps beneath solvent wisdom
gnomes appear and disappear
dancing in and out of shadows
imparting their transient algorithms
as answers bubble from dried wells
birthing ripe inclusive ideas
WE ALL WIN
these California wonders
remind us . . . for-give-ness heals

Linda, yes, one of the lovelies of living in California is the grace of our Grand Dads and the sweet comfort of standing in the midst of their circles as they channel their healing grace.
Thank you for reading my poem!
