Oh,

This glorious forest

is where I’ll gently grow older

in humble gratitude to Yah

for His graciousness in gifting me a sacred part

with all creation experiencing the seasons change

while they flow into one another as do my own

here among the limb and leaves

and letting go

letting love

fading

fearless

into

my

own

quiet

winter

whispering of the mysterious glory to one day be
