As I run through the woods
Warm rain thrashes the canopy
The trees quench a thirst
Leaves glisten, renewed vitality
Heavy drops pound my chest
Mud spatters up my bare legs
Feet sinking, the ground ingests
Feeling hopeless, my heart begs
With each tenacious stride
I’m filled with deep emotion
Mother Earth I do confide
Tears and raindrops, interwoven
As I travel through the hills
Footsteps drowned by nature's music
Wondering when I’ll hit the end
At that moment, all is muted
I look up and he is there
Majestic beauty, beyond belief
We lock eyes, Socratic stare
Sudden warmth abates my grief
Utterly still, among dancing trees
His crown adorned are antlers
My tears run dry before he flees
This love, has all the answers
