Long-lasting Stories

She watches
Isolated
In an entrancing solemn forest
Gazing into my heart
Beating like the twinkling stars
Above
I amble towards it
With wondering eyes of pearls
Footsteps into the past
Visions spring to me
Like magnets
Gymea Lily loitering defiantly
Scent of my hope ablaze
Hanging in the air
A generation of roasted stems
Nourishing meals from its roots
Brushes and mats
Rebuild a village
