I Sat and Cried
In those woods—
so dark, so deep—
there was a sound,
not a human sound
nor a sound of anything made by man.
as i walked along the leaf covered ground
it would stop,
when i stood still,
it would return.
suddenly, i understood.
i sat upon the leaves and cried.
because the sound was about me
,
even though it wasn’t a human sound
or the sound of anything made by man
