To Know Our Roots

To Know Our Roots

When life is uncertain

– and let’s face it:

when isn’t it? –

it can be good

to know our roots

to feel their strength

and to let them hold us

to feel our fluidity

our innate ability

to change

and transform.

Together

steady and flowing

strong and fluid

secure and free

the ground

from which our lives

grow anew.
