whispers
through the branches...
my mother's voice
catkins blowing in the breeze
an orb spider weaves her web
grandma's blanket...
I wrap myself
in silence
in the ancient ways
you teach me to walk
lightly...
stairs spiraling into darknessā¦
the roots of my family tree
buried bones
deep inside the earth
a faint vibration
