We rise, renewed

Our roots filling us

With the fire of future

The past shoots into newness

Leaves bursting into green

An ageless rebirth

All of our needs

Are met here

The sky to shelter

Limbs to stretch

Water to sustain

And life to burn and return again

We rise

From our own ashes

Nurtured

By ancient truths

Timeless belief

Yielding into growth ~ Caroline A. Slee
