The Soul of Me

The crackling embers, a fire glowing

Amidst the forest, an inner knowing

The trees, they always call to me

And when I'm with them, I can see

The deepest truth inside my soul,

The truest thing that makes me whole

It's just this calm that nature brings

It holds my heart and lets it sing

The simple presence of each moment,

And not a word needs to be spoken

Just the distant calls of birds,

The secret whispers of the woods

A beauty richer than any gold

The voices of the trees, young and old

To let us witness such a peaceful grace

To let us see her pretty face

Is such an honor in itself

For Earth will never need our help

But she knows how much we need hers

We only get what we deserve

So here I relish in her glory

Soaking in her silent story

'Cause we are just two energies

The soul of her, the soul of me.
