A hedgehog lives by a tree
she lives in all her hedgehog ways
and walks with a softness below her lighthearted feet that are made of cotton wool
she walks with small clouds
makes gentle steps on the green smiles below her
peace walks
peace stands
peace sits
cotton wool feet smile
she stands by a tree with four friendly feet
segments of the sky living with her , walking with her
cotton clouds travelling in each and every step she takes in this world
the tree talks , the tree stands
by hedgehogs side with leaves listening , never to walk away from those sensitive feet
when she has those moments when she just wants to be
and she just wants to stand
resting her little cotton wool feet on the soft greens
accepting of her ways

I have a regular visit the garden
Will look at her a little differently now
Esp the feet
Nicely done Violet

Hedgehogs are lovely
Had one in the garden quite a while back , I think it was a baby hedgehog and it was walking around the garden a lot of the day then at one point saw it sleeping in the corner .
Yeah they look friendly
Appreciate the comment
Such a tenderness in this I absolutely adore hedgehogs although I don't get to see them so much. We have other wildlife here like wild boar 🐗 X
Yeah hedgehogs are lovely
Sorry for the late reply on this
Thanks so much for the kind words 🙂
Ahh lovely write V.
We too have a regular hedgehog. We have a rat that visits too - eek! It dashes off quick.
Thanks orchidee 🙂
oh I so relate dear Poet
but for me it's a Squirrel family
I see from Spring to Autumn
every year, I call them 'beginning'
because they represent
the start of nature's beautiful seasons
'peace walks
peace stands
peace sits
cotton wool feet leaping
making me smile serene'
forgive me for tweaking your words
a little, but i love
the pure poetic feel of your lines
they portray
an innate understanding
and oneness with nature
another delightful read
thank you!
