Turned to TrustA Poem by Askew
An unexpected friend
Turned unexpected love A new confidante Turned new companion Like a worm trusting the earth To hide it from the birds Like a bird trusting the branch To hold its entire self Like a branch trusting the tree To keep it high in the air Like a tree trusting the roots To give it what it needs to survive Like a root trusting the rain To provide it with liquid life source Like a raindrop trusting the sea To embrace it when it falls Like a sea trusting the sailors To admire it strength and promise Like a sailor trusting the ship To always bring him back home The need to know And the need to keep to oneself Always at battle But the tide can be turned
