Connected Together in Kindness, As One

Heartbeat
Thrum

Heave of chest
Human breath

Frost propelled
Breath of animal

We are one
You and I

Blood rush
Salted tongue

Amber flecked eyes
Dawn, for us both

Every cell
Every evolution

Every sinew
Bone, scale, tail

Slither and
Stomp

Connected and
Earthbound we are

Anima - Soul
Spirit of whole

I dream
Of better days

For all species
Under human yoke

A moment of transformation

Connected together
In kindness
As one

connected together
