She drank from the ocean and unwound her ties
Escaping the darkness, secrets and lies
She danced along the shore and swam across the sea
No longer being held down, she was wild and free
A friend to the earth and keeper of the land
She lay on the beach, with her feet curled-up in the sand
Sleeping under the stars, with the moon on her side
The sun blew her kisses, as she bid each day a goodbye
Breathing in waves of salty ocean air
She threw caution aside, with the wind in her hair
Loosing her inhibitions, she got swept away in a breeze
Drowning in the curiosity of the ocean’s depth and mystery

Wildwood
As my 20th birthday gets near, wondering where this life would take me often leaves me awake at night. I feel lost and confused, afraid of the person I will become someday. As the eldest daughter, there’s a long list of things to worry about from career, money, and success. It all tangles up after having a glimpse of how cruel the world is.

The Business of Nature
Dew drops reflected the light of the sun. The inhabitants of Whispering Woods woke up to the golden droplets of water on the leaves of the flora. The oaks particularly enjoyed the light and the maples did, too. Happiness enveloped all who lived there, even the rocks that cried out in the night delighted in the morning.
