Birthed

By Kristy Mitchell


Birthed in tree's deep-rooted heart,
born naked from the tendrils of
the bark-bled mother; sourced in
watered knowing, as the oak rises
surely from its seed; so are angels
born and fairies brought to being.

  4. 'sourced in watered-knowing'--I like that. Your words are crafted together like a fairytale or mythology. Excellent.

  5. A delightful poem that explains a mystery that has long confounded me - so that's where angels and fairies come from.
