Finally Silence

Finally, silence.
Nothing more than
our original Earth intended.
Where no matter who you are now,
or might have been even a moment ago,
evaporates, reimagined
as stem and leaf and forest,
cupped in the palm of this accepting sky,
telling you that here,
you have what you’ve needed.
Here, you have found safety.
