It's Still Life

Day 20: Imagine you are a nature-inspired artist using materials found in the great outdoors.

On a Collage

In this secret chamber wood,
my knobby walking stick did break.

In these cloistered thick-thatched trees,
where light of day does rarely reach,

my walking stick,
though just a stick,

caught in a hole, a hare’s perhaps,
quite near a dry tree trunk.

It cracked as loud as gunshot,
a sound rising high as fireflies,

and there I fell upon the forest floor,
on a collage of leaves, and twigs,

my nose in roots and mushrooms,
and truly so much more.
