drop the roots.
into the ground
down thru my soul
and deeper still
deeper deeper
deeper into the ground
i am taking this as my own
this earth is where my roots will drop into the ground
and take deep claim over this single plot of space
where my heart will grow
drop the roots
and raise the branches
reach up to the sunshine
strong busy arms
pull up to the sky
and claim the rays of light
coming down from the sky
your blessings
your gifts from source
rain and light
and all that you need to grow
you are grounded here in your plot of land
not a seed blowing in the wind
but a strong tree planted in the space that will hold you for now
taking your roots and nourishing your limbs
grounded
grounded
again.
