Green Growth, New Life

Swinging vines reaching up for the ferns.
Sunbeams peaking through the canopy.
Flowing streams rushing through the rainforest.
Fallen tree branch bending over the stream.
Green growth, new life.
Chirping, chattering, king parrots.
Pouring paint onto a palette.
Cicadas crackling through the Daintree.
Trickling water treads through the drink
Snakes slither through the moist mist.
Green growth, new life.
Freshness flowing over my skin.
Water streaming through my veins.
Green-eyed frogs climbing vines.
This is a heartbeat.
Breathing life through the Daintree.
