Up past timberline

i don’t want to think in words tonite, 
i am full of trees,
so much fluorescent green,
trees like a carpet laid over the rock and dirt,
trees packed so closely the sun did not shine in between them,

a slightly staggered forest of trees emitting
random rays of yellow, like gems
of fading chlorophyll laden leaves
in the spaces in between,

until there was not a single tree
at top, against the wind, on the rock
i have passed from the waterline
to the timberline
through the trees as my dressing gown,
with the wind as my song (first rough draft of feelings)
