"Out of nowhere in our midst

come the leaves, growing as we grow

 

(palm, fingers, branching of veins,

nucleotides dreaming in trillions),

 

green inheriting the earth again

each spring. . ."

 

 

~ Poet, Margaret Holley, BEYOND ME / VOICES OF THE NATURAL WORLD, NorthWord Press Inc., 1993.
