Tree

This Day

It set you on fire

the light passing through you

jumped into my sight

I raised the camera and grabbed the image

took it with me

took it home

saved the light and the fire

so I would always have it

but I don't really have it

I look at it

it is outside of me

I don't have the light and fire

you had it, tree, in that moment

I got to leave the moment there

with you, tree 

let the moments move through me

and beyond

don't need to take it home

Breath
