When first I met her
I needed a relationship
that wouldn’t pursue me,
in the usual way.
I needed an intimacy
that moved with me,
as I moved.
~
She will not lead you
to still waters, nor even ask you
to take a drink. she doesn’t even
care if you pursue her.
She just loves.
She met me under a tree,
when I called to her, I saw
that she was the tree.
~
She doesn’t demand commitment,
nor sacrifice,
she but notices it, and gently
encourages me to
keep pacing myself.
keep finding ways to be gentle with you, she says.
She shows me how to love myself,
in this way.
I met her when,
I needed her voice to be the
gentlest, clearest, cut-through-the-bullshit,
opening
she doesn’t define a gender.
she isn’t gonna hurt your heart,
to teach you a lesson.
you weren’t born for that.
she says, “oh honey, life just is,
love as much as you can”

Trees are wise like that. I read this with a soft voice and ended with a sigh. Now I am smiling a gentle smile that goes deep down to my roots. 🙂
JoAnna – you are AWESOME!
