Light in the Forest

there is light out there
coming through
the new spring leaves

a lost meadow
a deer filled glade
a huge beaver pond stocked
with bass - - -?

the tired monk pushes through
a gnarly hemlock stand

stumbles
into desolation

reads the signs
 Private Road
 No Trespassing
 Luxury Estate Homes

  1. Ouch. How I hate that. I felt like the monk, serenely visualizing the forest then "stumbling onto desolation". And the sign. Argh.

  2. Truly there is desolation in destruction. How pained the tired monk must be.
