Mountain Path: April 2020
by Beate Sigriddaughter / April 5th, 2020
juniper grace
tall grass
sharp edges
of century plants
keep going
one step
after the other
on this familiar path
of taking things
for granted
into the suddenly
unknown
it has always been
like this
uncertain
I just never
noticed so much
before
