Refracted light
Forks in the road
Detours
But never dead ends
Adventures

Aborted before one can even begin

Slow
Nonexistent but not extinct
Endangered species on the brink of...
...discovery, rescue, repair and liberation
Speed of light
Exploration
New horizons
New beginnings
New found land
Open space
Safe place
Surrounded by the speed of light
Step into this green scenery
Life!
No boundary lines
No limits
No cage
No experiment...
Just pure, full and bright
...Not manufactured
Not duplicated
Not edited
Not stolen
Surrounded by the speed of sound
Hidden but not hidden
A mystery in plain sight
A secret well kept
A wellspring in a valley
A light in a cave
A flower on a cliff's edge
A river finds its way
into vast ocean waves
Found
Known
Seen
Heard
Roots loyal to this earth
Deep!
Unearthed, only to be planted again
Wonder and awe
are safely held in the palms
like an hourglass
Roots curl around fingers
Cherish and commit to bathe it in light
Water whenever needed
Set in the window of the unknown
never block its light
Let nature take its course.
Let it grow!
Let it breathe!
Gaze!
Unearthed, only to be planted again
Moments suspended in time
Breathe...
Deep calls out to deep...
