Anna

Where forests dream
She lays her head
Anna with the mountains
In her hair.

Where no one breathes
Anna dreams
Of forests dreaming
In her hair.

Where the river cries
She smiles instead
Anna with the wetland
In her eyes.

Wild dogs whisper
Through the shed,
Says Anna
Nodding into bed.

Anna, Anna
Where’ve you fled?
The mermaid in the teacup
Said.
