Waiting

 Long for what's no longer.
                 Know the loss, but
                 knowledge lost.

While in the forest
                stand severed stumps
                of ancient trees
                               felled by greed,
                who, now cloaked in moss,
                                nourish saplings.


                As forest's youth
                wait for wisdom of the land
                               to grow into them.
