Ancestors

In Tyson Shepherd’s poetic prose Ancestors, ancient figures are envisioned as part of the natural world, embedded in the trees outside the narrator’s home. Their faces, hair, and toes merge with the bark and roots, offering silent guidance and comfort as the narrator plays in the forest, embodying a connection between nature and ancestral wisdom.
