I Live Under Giant Sequoias

By Jo Ann Herbert

I live under giant sequoias
with deer grazing by moonlight

I watch thoughts rush tangle
and lead me to anger and despair.

I count warm memories
I see wrongs the world over

I cuddle animal sweetness
that calms the bitter themes

I live under giant sequoias.
