Remember me

 

Remember me


Remember me, said the cool moist dark earth,

soil, compost and grounding your senses;

Remember me, said the grey silver sky, 

filled with the promise of brighter days;

Remember me, whispered the snowdrops

in the same grassy patch, each year greeting you

with gentle ringing of our bells, for you,

for all your children, and for everyone.


Thank you, thank you all for remembering me

I am grateful, I remember you, and as I greet you

your presence comforts me; 

And so the plane tree, the hawthorn, the hazel and the willows,

the oaks and the cherry trees, they all carry a piece of me,

some of my moods and some of my body cells.

Our energy paths connected, marking the land, 

the land I step on each day, grows and moves in cycles with me,

and all the ones who cross my paths and walk with me, 

grow with me;

So we are this land, we are this earth

How can we even forget that?
