If your scream like a flower
Crashed as a petal fell
There would be soft dwindling raindrops
Drenching
thirst quenching
Under a spell.
If there were to be roots manoeuvred
And space redefined
The tramways of your branching
May have been inclined
To reach for new enclosure
Beyond the man-made sign
And spread out there in tunnels
New places, hunt and find.
But you'd fear not for the howling wind
Or rusty digger
Nor foreign hound
For under the forest of shadowing leaves
Places were always to be found.
