Loved it Jason! It's wild. I sat down with my computer to type up an entry for a nature magazine - the prompt is to write about being way off trail surrounded by wildlife. And your page was here on my browser, writing about trees lol. New word of the day: Dalliances.
Charles Shultz was a genius.
I absolutely love both the haiku and the poem following!
Tree roots intertwined, holding each other up 💕. Beautiful
I have come back to reread this, where else can you find such radical thoughts:
"no love is sweeter than the clinging of bodies that are
hard and soft in all the wrong places. Nothing is more erotic
than the touch of comfort and safety."

Brilliant.
Thank you Dascha, for introducing me to this.
Your poem is perfection, Jason. It resonates in my heart!
Beautiful poem 🖤. Reminds me of the Rilke poem about Marriage, and being the guardian of each other’s solitude.
