Forest Bathing
The trees...
They soak up the carbon dioxide I breathe out
as well as the inner turmoil I express.
They release oxygen for me to breathe in
as well as loving guidance for me to ingest.
Trees are rooted and reach for the sky;
a reminder of my capacity to grow, to continue to try.
They help me find ground and my source of strength
when I’m feeling weak and start to doubt life.
They are the greatest examples of what it means to give,
truly transcendent,
they provide the means for all things to live.
I wish I were a tree,
but they tell me differently.
They say I’m here to be human,
that this is my journey.
With love and support they offer their advice:
“Take care of yourself, I’m glad you’re alive.”
