Tree of Life 2013 by Drea Jensen
Like trees, we as people are always growing. Though the growth may not be seen such as in height or weight, our hearts and minds will never stop reaching for the sky.

Of Goodness
By Mary Oliver
How good
that the clouds travel, as they do,
like the long dresses of the angels
of our imagination,
or gather in the storm masses, then break
with their gifts of replenishment,
and how good
that the trees shelter the patient birds
in their thick leaves,
and how good that in the field
the next morning
red bird frolics again, his throat full of song,
and how good
that the dark ponds, refreshed,
are holding the white cups of the lilies
so that each is an eye that can look upward,
and how good that the little blue-winged teal
comes paddling among them, as cheerful as ever,
and so on, and so on.
Si divine dear Drea! You, the poem, and the tree of life. Thank you for your loving wisdom.
Thanks for the LOVE and SUPPORT!
