Find me in the warm shade
Find me on the east slope of Marquam Hill
where the black squirrels roam
Find me among the sprawling ferns
Where the woodpeckers knock-knock overhead in the standing dead trees
Where the hillside soaked in winter rain drains slowly across the path
Find me where the fir needles lie so thick
that soil is just a distant rumor
There, where I spread my giant triple leaves
Where I raise my trefoil standard of cerise paling to pink to white
Find me there.
