							Waterways watching me 
								 
								flow underground 
								 
								making love sounds 
								 
								reverberate 
								 
								through my gills. 
								 
								 
								Shimmering winds 
								 
								wash through my leaves 
								 
								and petals part 
								 
								hair, limbs and brow opens. 
								 
								 
								Shining sunset red 
								 
								behind my tree trunk. 
								 
								I fertilize wood-song. 
								 
								You grow through my body, 
								 
								take root through my passage here.
