The place where hoof-falls leave no mark upon the earth,
yet every branch knows who has passed.
The Great Horned One treads light through the oak and thorn,
his dark eyes gleaming in the amber pool,
mirror to the stars,
mirror to the wild within you.
Listen—
the crow’s sharp call across the valley floor
breaking the quiet like a silver thread,
while soft-winged, yellow-eyed,
the owl turns her silent face to yours
and pulls you across the boundary into her domain.
To lie in the cool, clear rush of the woodland stream,
to feel the current take your weight,
the steady rhythm of your blood
joining the ancient, endless song of running water—
you are not apart from it.
You are the liminal space.
You are the shadow, the light,
and the wild thing resting at last
