Between Heaven and Earth | Weaving Gold

Between Heaven and Earth

by Natalia Iwanyckyj on February 12, 2016

Hollow whole
beckons: be ensconced.
Shelter self.
Touch dead life.
Connect heaven's stream of light
to dark, ancient roots.

I love the way this links to trees as majestic, ancient beings.

  Thank you! I do feel — and love the sense — of trees as ancient wisdom-keepers. Thanks for the prompt and introduction to a new poetry form.
