Wandering Wasteland

Poetry for the loved and the unloved.

Wild we were

wanting wonder

Warm with wisdom

whispering woven words

Whirling wings

wet with weather

white wolves walking

with wild women

Wonder was what we won

while we were whole

when we worked

Wandering wastelands

wounded

withering

winter within

Withdrawal

without

wildness

This poem was written by my friend Aleksandra Orbeck.
