For Love Of Trees

We came for the trees
after lives of never thriving,
we came alive
we walked the hills
we lay in grass and planted the fields
but there was always
leaving,
always leaving.

And this continued.
More walking
through forests and over mountains,
the quiet times
the longing
the yearning
the creation
the separation,
the seemingly endless parting.

But here today
as the lilacs bloom under the cloudy sky
I know why
the charity of sweet fragrance fills my heart with calm,
with peace beneath the trees,
the magpie flies above
and now it is my time to find the way every day.

God knows where you are
and I know I am with him.
'God goes with me where ever I go' *

Trees grow where they are planted
birds fly across the sky and sing each day.
A bird is heard whenever we are listening.
I am listening now,
I am here now.

We came to be with the trees.
This understanding
shines the light through me.
