Sun dappled pillars of silver and green, towering
Cathedrals skywards.
Earth damp dew and warmth in the air
Choirs in every bow, feathered beat boxers,
Heads high and proud, not awaiting discovery.
Moss, twig and bramble underfoot,
Adding a low base tone as I crunch,
Fusion fundamentals of girl versus bird.
The beauty so rich, phone is pocketed,
Eyes too hungry to share.
