Be like a tree in God's garden
stretch out the roots deep enough
.... to absorb God's love
Unknown
______________________________
the tree is bent
beneath the weight of snow and ice
a few dead leaves
still remain on starkly
empty branches
yet beneath
the frozen ground
roots dive deep into the earth
seeking warmth and sustenance
seeking a spark of life
over and over again
death comes
how often
we too face
our demise
how often we erode
gradually fading until
it seems as though there is nothing left
and yet
if we stretch our roots out
deep enough
into Sacred Ground
we are fed
love flows
and over and over again
resurrection
