Kaze Hikaru

As I felt as if I were a part of everything
Every thing around me is growing and alive,
There were flowers and tall grasses blowing gently,
In the breezes and i felt as if i were a part
Of this place, as if I became it and it was in me.

As I walked, there were these amazing trees,
So brilliant and tall and some seemed to be,
A thousand years old or more.

Those that had fallen were still in their place
And so I counted the rings of trees, hills and rocks
Aware of light and space all around me, I wondered,
As I walked I saw a few trees that were laying down.

Some had fallen naturally, some may have been trimmed,
But each left to the ages and time, ancient,
In a state of grace and of years passing by.

Still in existence, beautiful, yet left silent
Perhaps waiting to fossilize, or to be left unchanging,
And that maybe some things are not meant to be moved,
Never to be too far from it’s birth.

And as for me to have traveled thus far to see
This beauty on this day, it makes me feel like a part of it,
A part of your life, and not just the radiant scenery,
But more so one with all, its who you are, seeing you shining,
And on our way to becoming us.

It’s why I love this place and you so much,
I love you. I just do, unconditionally,
Kaze Hikaru.
