The Tall Trees

Inspiration from a dream... It gives comfort in expectation of my final days...

The tall trees whisper my name, softly calling
Never the same
To rise... to rise they plead
Above the clouds where stars collide
Beyond the Veil where dreams reside

Into the heavens away I soar
Leaving this Earth bound no more
Removed from weight, set free I glide
To rest in peace on the other side

Their leaves hum secrets of old
Stories of skies and hearts turned cold
They sway, they guide, they lead.
Branches stretch like arms of time
Reaching out they blur the line
Between the world, between the stars
I lose myself where the cosmos are

Into the heavens away I soar
Leaving this Earth bound no more
Removed from weight, set free I glide
To rest in peace, on the other side…
