During the quiet of the night
they come from all directions on paw and hoof
to reach the sacred spot and journey beyond.
Arrival
At the sacred spot
you will reach a delicate fence
of frost frozen flowers.
Trillium
Star of the woodland
offers a sacred trinity
in flower petals and leaves.
Center
The pines encircle the most ancient one
who has lost her needles but not her magnificence.
Sacred is the center.
