Photo I found of a sculpture from 1992. It's the time of the GREEN MAN! Here's a poem I wrote around the same time, felt like sharing again. And here is a LINK TO VIDEOS ABOUT REAL GREEN MEN, renewing forests and landscapes in our world: https://threadsofspiderwoman.blogspot.com/2021/03/the-forest-man-real-green-men-for-21st.html
The Green Man
I walked among the trees
I wore the mask of the deer
remember me, try to remember
I am that laughing man
with eyes like dappled leaves.
When you think that winter will never end
I will come.
You will feel my breath, warm at your neck.
I will rise in the grass, a vine caressing your foot.
I am the blue eye of a crocus
opening in the snow
a trickle of water, a calling bird,
a shaft of light among the trees.
You will hear me singing
among the green groves of memory,
the shining leaves of tomorrow.
I'll come with daisies in my hands,
we'll dance among the sycamores
once more
