      stress leaving the body
         sweat and tears

     the geography of the world
        drawn with a new ink

       red sometimes and wild
  in time gentle blues and greens

     the colors of tree and sky
             new leaves

        bloodline histories
        ancestral memories

            feel the air
       the smell of petrichor

          roots stretching
       the warm damp of earth

         mycorrhiza bridges
