The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

A growth of moss extends a tiny hand...


Mossman

Mossman creeping across the bark
down low amongst the humus soil
a creature of the damp and dark
in secret growth his soul doth coil

But now in species friendship true
a gesture brave and quite unique
extends he once a tiny hand to you
and you into his world do peek.
