The luxurious green trees of all shapes and forms
And the illuminating speckles of dust
Flowing through the mysterious sun rays
As if playing their own musical notes
Hoping to find their way
Like how you and I found each other?
Often when I look at the trees
I wonder about all the things they’ve seen
And the journeys they’ve had
A thousand stories to tell?
You and I are one in the making.
Life is much like finding your way through the forest
A maze full of chances; expected and unexpected
Sometimes you have the answers,
The path a straight line ahead
And sometimes you are lost; no answers, no whispers
Just long empty silences; ambushed?
Till you see the canopy; a star shining so bright
Hope. Belief. Love.
You. I. Us.
As you walk deeper into the crevices of the forest
The familiarity in the strangeness is astounding
You can hear the stream flowing and the tiny whirlpools talking
The little homes become evident
Nests and spider webs and the cocoons
Fireflies guiding you through the darkness
There is immense and unbounded warmth
Your embrace!
However, some views are extra special; breathtaking, spectacular!
When your heart skips a beat
And breathing is no longer relevant; the pattern breaks
This “disturbance” is enchanting!
You can feel your heart smiling
And every fibre of your existence dances with joy
Divine happiness!
And that’s how I felt when I saw
The Sunflower!
A rare sight
So pure, so beautiful
It was perfect and it wasn’t
Everything I wanted and even more
In that moment I knew my absolute truth
For it was the creation of love!
And that’s what they are
Your eyes!
When I look into them
My heart skips a beat
And I feel abundant warmth
In a moment I live a thousand lives
And that’s what they are
Your eyes!
They are the forest and the sunflower!
- dedicated to the one who taught me that love is mostly patience. It is ever growing, challenging and most importantly grounding. My green eyed nerd, I love you more each day!
