Two photos and two Poems for One Word Sunday Poetic. My poem inspired by Wendell Berry

MOSS
Using my precious writing time
instead
I put down my pen close my book
put on my shoes
to go out 
where there is 
bright green moss 
on a red brick
I know
it is always there in winter 
rabbit soft and fleshy
I give thanks for 
that simple being of plant life
And pray
may I surrender to my place
on earth
as gracefully 
as moss on stone
and am free.
