"Content in Knowing," a poem by Elder CD Burr

 




Beyond a gnarled broken oak branch

     blackened and decayed on forest floor,

amid tatted ferns, drifting leaves, and lichen,

beneath outstretched grandmother-oak arms 

among a community

     of ash, elm, and sycamore,

a cluster of lemon-yellow blossoms

basks in a stream of evanescent sunlight

content in knowing

it is enough.
