Her eyes wide as life-rings inside redwood trees
Her strides cousins of the fawns
Legs intertwining with wind and tips of grass
Her ears pull together sound waves of cicadas, grasshoppers, fireflies
She is real
She is of element upon element
Of seed and water
Of crust, mantle, inner core, outer core
Of the footprints in the soil and the heartbeats attached
Legs up and down
Eyes back and forth
Oxygen in and out
She is real because she has joined the land of the beings
Become part of the life that propels
The endless circles, the constant flow
Rejoice in this place where life is free and borderless
Oceans deep as your love
Fields wide as your curiosity
Mountains tall as you might become
Her pulse is the same as yours
And the animals she resembles
The animals that resemble you.
You are as real as beings and the land you reside in.
