Breath of Life....From Zoe

Ancient tree...O' ye tell,
tales stored in run ring wells
times of past encumbered thee
succumb I must your breath to me

Your station holds in root to ground
my feet unbound has freedom found
to you I must always,to return,
your winded limbs as music heard

Each ring a storied song of light
in growth to reach toward golden heights
from azure sky thy dew to fall
quenching thirst you share to all

My ancient partner breathe to me
gift of air replenish me....
from earthy roots to fluid motion
airy streams of radiant oceans,
allow my sharing of glorious growth
to you beseeched my soul will goeth,
.....Heavens dream be true I knowth.....
