The Forest Bestoweth

Image maker,

I know not of your intrusion 

But of your light from within

Yes, you belong

My boughs embrace your essence

Oh to be yours, to be as one

To be loved and never lonely

I beg you to touch, 

to know, and to feel 

this earth between your feet

Touch me as I've touched you

Through your eyes, your lens 

Your photograph, 

an everlasting memory,

begets my future, my soul

And I am grateful
