Faerie's Rest, Missoula, Montana

Sometimes
If you move carefully
through the forest

breathing
like the ones
in the old stories

who could cross
a shimmering bed of dry leaves
without a sound,

you come
to a place
whose only task

is to trouble you
with tiny
but frightening requests

conceived out of nowhere
but in this place
beginning to lead everywhere.
　
-- David Whyte, excerpt from Sometimes
from Everything is Waiting for You
