Bark & Bone Contribution

‘Mushrooms’ conjures up a beautiful woodland scene full of gorgeous marine imagery. Here’s a snippet:

Far from the forest’s coastal
edges, a strange reef has
formed around the promontory
of an ancient tree.

The leafy floor shimmers
with frost like pale water;
ice is lapping at the ripples
of stony bark.
