Lifesong

Lifesong
 
This is my song.
 It strums the notes
 that are rooted
 within my being
 These cords
 filled with love
 surround me
 carried on wings
 to the heavens
 swirling about
 to engulf
 those around me

 The melody
 plays soft
 in the valley low
 and echo loudly
 the joys
 of mountains climbed
 Overflowing
 my song
 springs forth
 branching out
 its welcome
 to those I adore.

The spirits strong to sing along with grace upon the land. The roots are strong and deep and long that helps the tree to stand. Mother earth has given birth so we can live today. She let's us know what we are worth so we can find our way. Soup
