Green

This is some older writing from a few years ago. I wanted to capture it here.

Ahhh, to take my daughters and leap away from this concrete world, at least for a while.
Immerse ourselves in a growing and flowing world of luscious greens, blues and browns;
Leave our frowns and this town and just
                                                             keep
                                                                going.

Keep holding, keep knowing that there is something greater than ourselves, greater than this concrete world of someone else's design, and look instead for the raw, unkempt, wild world where flaws and dirt don't hurt a goddamn thing, but instead make you long to learn the deeper secrets within this luscious, living world beyond the concrete, paved over, designed, wined and dined, shallow existence we call life. 

Let's escape this day to day appointments-and-expectations driven world and let that green and growing wild flow over us and carry us away from this intersection of Running-Late and Hurry-Up.

Come, my daughters. Let's go, let's grow, let's yearn to learn that which cannot be taught by any concrete walls with nagging clocks. Let's run wild in a field, dance in the rain, roll down a hill and scream out the names of those who went before us.

Let's join those Wild Womyn of the not so distant, but long forgotten past, when we were one with this green and growing, vibrant Earth. When we honored her, and lived not in vain, but in celebration of her name.
