Grow

Our blurred days where we weaved in and out
Together for some and then not
All the while we grew roots
All the soil under our nails
Dig down, grow up

Her face turned towards the sky
Limbs stretching high
Intertwine your boughs with mine
Reaching out
Retracing us
Tracing joy and love
Joy and love

Family blood coursing up through the veins
To the tip of each leaf
Bearing the fruits of her work
Working the ground
Spreading seed
Spreading seed

Birds flock to sing and bask in her shade
Critters crawl to find a safe escape
I'll do the same
I'll do the same
You can always do the same
With me

There's plenty more rays to catch
More days ahead
More growth to plan
More stretch to span
More weathering around the edges
Wondering where we're headed
But knowing with our roots we're always stepping
Forward

As our rings grow together we experience time
Our limbs sway together, our spirits align
Just two trees caught between
The humming
And buzzing
And beauty
Of life
