truthA Poem by Elisabeth Bowles
Sitting in the firelight, the warm glow brightening my face Allowing the flames to tickle the roots of my soul and the branches of my heart The embers enveloping me and turning the darkness bright I follow the smoke to the sky. Allow my dreams to soar into the clouds, released into the vast beauty of the universe. I lie upon the cool summer night ground, and let the earth hold me, enveloping me. Surrounding myself with the fragrance of the night Enticing me to search all creation Offering thanks to the creator for generosity, for beauty Offering myself to be one with the earth Giving of myself, finally whole, alone to nature To the nature of love, to the love of self, the self of truth.
