Nirvana June 13, 2024

 

she rides through the woods

on the back of a steed she could

 easily rename as pure joy

 this trotting across paths

 towards a sky full of dark clouds

 she might have sought

to avoid in the past

she and the beast journey

into the woods together

 perhaps a perfect partner

 each needing to heal inside and out

each needing something

to keep them going

a life that is more than

just the usual struggle to survive

her camera catching

 the back of the horse's head

as they move towards

 the horizon together

in a rare moment of bliss

she treasures after so

 many years of pain

 each stride taking them

 into Nirvana
