Tree Blessing

Bless this tree
Holding memories
The living and the dead
Elemental, human, animal

Branches held wide
Greeting energy
She embraces the air
Celebrating life
Silent but not soundless
Her leaves roar
As she whirls in the breeze

She is a world
And the world circles her
Her winter bones are firewood
Spring leaves nourish deer
In summer lovers rest beneath her
She remains unmoved yet aware

Hospitable to all-comers
Mammals, flying creatures
Beetles, birds and beasts
Isolated yet connected
She is a world
And the world circles her

Below her roots go deep
Pumping subterranean waters
Powerful, strong, stretching
Dwelling in a busy underworld

So much history
So many lives
So grand
So gracious

She is sacred
Beautiful
And Wise

And so we bless her,
And caress her
For her spirit is beautiful
She is a green angel
Blessing our material world
