A Harmony With Earth

I stare at my feet sinking into the grass growing inside of me.

A meteor pierced the sky with a brilliant light and caught my attention. The fiery tail leaves a streak of color. He smiles sarcastically at me as he approaches me, then his hands appear, rest on my shoulder, and take me into the mycorrhizal network.

A blue mushroom throws a party for his friends and their bodies to chime, lighting up as they swing. When they saw me, their heads glowed with the colored lights they sent into my body, and I became in harmony with the earth.
