Lost and Found
I found something in the forest that I once lost.
It was hanging on spider silk and dripping with the sun.
It was tucked into the palm of a young leaf.
It was a secret shared between birds that somehow, I understood perfectly. Urgently.
I walked and I walked. Impossibly, I understood more and deeper.
In my years of walking through the woods, I’ve made many observations. Among them, that people in a forest always seem to know that walking is best.
If you stand still, you miss it.
If you run, you miss it.
But if you walk, your curiosity will show you everything.
