Leaving Me Behind

 How can you leave some vital part of yourself

Behind you

On a tract of land that

Somehow became a part of your soul

And when you go back

You find that part of you that you can never find

And the apple tree you loved

The tiny wild Violets

The spring garden with the Daffodils

And feeling whole

Well, it's some sort of feeling

Kind of the best

And you want to scoop

All of yourself up

And say ~ You'll be okay there too

Or anywhere

But does the moss robe everything in green?

Is Spring sunlight the same gladsome hue?

Do ferns grow in families every place you lay your eye?

Does your heart feel at peace?

Do you go forth singing?
