See beyond

The forest calls
beckoning forth the heart within.

Come walk in my shadows
and feel the filtered shafts of light .

Come see beauty in burnt-out trees,
and as you gaze upon what others
deem ugly,
I’ll bring you to your knees
and fill you
with love,
and beauty
and truth.

See beyond what lies in front of the eyes.
See within and find that where the lightning struck
and fire raged and violent tempest blew

Life
eternal, unending, ceaseless life
springs anew!

As it does in me,
the lightning tree,

So too,
it does
in you.
