There is a glow under my feet
I feel it pulsating through the ground
I hear mumbling and excitement
I feel it warming up inside me.
There must be an engine under my feet!
It spins and spirals all around me
It moves in waves coming and going
It wants to come out
It wants to breathe.
I hear some ranting under my feet!
It screams loud and louder
“Let me out, let me out!”, it said
Please!!
I felt it’s voice burning inside
I let earth speak through me
“Let me heal the pain you brought me.
It’s time you let me be.”

This print is from an original pressed flower artwork I made sometime around 2006-2009.
The paper is 8 inches x10 inches. The image is 5.5 inches x 7 inches.
The plants used were rose petals and alstroemeria leaves with a bit or color pencil for shading.
