Poems
Jul 2013
I want to have deep roots
I want to have deep roots
that are untouched by anything
other than the dirt.
Wholesome, hearty roots
that understand place and purpose.
I want to know, not in my bones,
but in my roots,
how to exist and simply be.
Learning to live with less
oxygen and more heart.
I want my foundations to be
firm and unchanging
to provide stability
when the shadows
and thieves come.
I want to have deep roots
that are untouched by anything
other than the earth.
