The Forest of the Abandoned

 

Deep in the forest of the abandoned there is a small light,

very small, a signal really, that it’s time for snow melting

transforming  into a stream, and then a river, molding

itself into a surge, growing in strength into a relentless rescue.

Covering, cleansing the ones left for dead, washing them,

until even their screams are erased, and

they can believe in their circulation

once again.
