A safe place

Slowly,

Swiftly,

I say goodbye,

to find somewhere,

somewhere safe,

goodbye, mother tree.

I travel to a new place,

this place with orange flickering lights and thick black smoke,

I see trees burning  to their end in the distance,

this place not safe.

I travel to a new place,

this place with deep dirt water,

in the distance I see trees gasping for breath

then being swallowed by dirt water.

This place not safe.

I travel back a distance back,

back to where im familiar,

hello, mother tree.
