The Spirit of the Tree will Remain Within Thee

 The Sound of Droplets

Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

The dry wind scurries across the Land

The dry wind wants you to understand, the lack of moisture, the arid ground, will soon create a new sound

The sound of droplets bouncing off the ground

For these droplets want to penetrate

But at this rate, these droplets need to stay put

So instead penetrating, they accumulate together one drop at a time

 

 Patient Lot

As they are inclined to accumulate together, we the Star Brothers and Sisters are here to suggest to thee, they are a patient lot

For as the raindrops accumulate together, they make a large drop and this drop makes a stain and this stain will slowly, but surely remain, in place

Eventually you will be able to trace where the droplet started and the accumulated energy began

We are here to say to you, the arid ground that you see before you, will eventually become moist

But in many ways, it is all about your choice

 

Do For You

The Voice of the Forest, sings out to you

They ask you, what can they do for you

Yes, my dears we want to make it perfectly clear, the Standing Ones look out for you

Do you look out for them

The Standing Ones are a giving source

And you my dears might refer to them as, a resource

The Standing Ones look like they stand idly by

Some of you may spy them and see, but a mere Tree

 

Community

We the Standing Ones are here to suggest to thee; we are not a mere tree we are a community

A community below the ground

What you see above the ground, you would be astounded by our interconnectedness

 

 Never Alone

We the Trees of the Land want you to understand, we work together, we are never alone

So, if you are to see us as a stand-alone, you are only seeing us as alone

We are never alone

We do not belong in that zone

For although some of us are different, although some of us are tall, some of us are small, some of us are twisted, some of us are straight

We relate to each other in so many ways

If we were to say, we help each other out, that would be just a drop coming out of our spout

We see our enemies from far, far, away

And if we don’t see our enemies from far, far, away, hey another tree species does

And guess what the word is out

Messages through the Earth, messages through the Air, messages through the Water, messages we would like to declare, are at times even inspired by the very Fire

So, the next time you look at a Tree, see more than the Tree

For the Tree is a phenomenal reality, above and below

As a species we are ancient, as a species we are adaptable

 

In The Waiting

Some of you see us as furniture in the waiting, some of you see us as masts in the making, some of you see as flooring for your house, some of you see us as medicine, some of you see us as a way to cool, some of you see us as a learning tool, some of you see us as a place to carve your name, some of you see us as the only evidence that you remain, some of you see us as life in the dark, some of you see us as a way to build an ark, some of you see us as ancient and knowledgeable, some of you see us as pages in a book, some of you see us as furniture, some of you see us as a boat

 

Consumers

We the Standing Ones see you the same

You remain what we refer to as consumers

Now some of you enable us to live, some of you care for our brothers and sisters, some of you plant us, some of you arrange us in a circle, some of you research, some of you just search, some of you watch, some of climb, some of you are inclined to sit in our presence and attempt to relate

 

Door

We are a habitat, we are a home, but we are never ever, ever,

alone

We release, we absorb

It’s like the opening and closing of a door

Some of you are well aware

Some of you know nothing about the chair, that you sit upon

It has a history, it has a grain

 

Beneath Thee

And as you remain seated, the Spirit of the Tree, lives beneath thee

The Spirit of the Tree is all around thee, for the Spirit remains, its part of the Soul

So, recognize the Spirit that lives around you

For as you make use of different parts of the Tree, be well aware the Spirit of the Tree is everywhere

She enters you through her sap

Medicines that come through you, help you to adapt

 

We Share in Your Life

For we the Tree People want you to be well aware, we share in your essence, we share in your life

All we ask of you is to care

Care about the Air you breathe

Care about the ground you stand upon

Care about the medicines that help in your Song of Life

Care about the instruments that beat their own vibration

Care about the solvents that are in relation to you

 

Entwined

We the Tree People are here to say to you, we are entwined with each and every one of you

We declare, we care

Do we sense something in the Air, is it possible you too care

As the Air is arid, as the Air is dry, many of you may wonder why

 

Understanding of Fire

We the Tree People are suggesting to thee, it is not just about the heat reality, it is about the fuel, it is about the understanding of Fire

So, if you humans desire an answer to this, look in deep, the answer is there

And we the Tree People are here to declare, this too you can repair

So, the question is do you care

Do you care enough to repair, the situation you’re in

For we the Tree People stand proud stand tall

And we look down at all of you and wait for the day when you say, I know why

And once you know why, we the Sky People are here to suggest to thee, repair

Once you repair there will be a change in the Air

 

Rains

The Standing Ones wait for the rains

And we are here to explain, the rains will return, will you be ready

We ask this question of you, for the ground is hard, hard, as a rock

And as we talk here to you, we see the rain falling hard

Will it sit on the ground and remain in place

Or will it race across the ground making a gurgling sound, flying by

And as it flies by, it will pick up items along the ground

It will rush forth, it will push away

And on the next day, will you know the rain has been

Will you hear it on the tin roof, will it remain in place

Or will it trace itself across the ground

Will the sound be heavy, will the sound be soft

Will you know of its intent

Has it been sent to be gentle to be calm

Or has it been sent to help you all to belong, within a shelter all together

 

Will You be Ready

Yes, my dears we want to make it perfectly clear; the rains will come, will you be ready

The rivers will fill, the lakes as well

But will it remain in the ground

Can you tell by the sound, will the Tree tell you

Or will you do a test

Or will you protest that’s not enough

We need more

Yes, my dears we want to make it perfectly clear, the rain is on its way

All we are here to say to you is prepare

For the rain is in the Air, waiting for the right time, waiting for the right opportunity

Are you inclined to be ready

 

A Change in the Air

Sing to the rain, sing to the Tree

Sing to the cooler breeze

Yes, my dear we want to make it perfectly clear, there is a change in the Air, there is a coming

Will you prepare, will you be ready

Or my dears would it appear you have no fear

You are watchful, you anticipate

And for those of you who can relate, to the changes in the weather, to the changes on the ground, to the changes in the weather, to the changes in the sound, to the changes in the weather, to the changes in the Trees, to the changes in the weather especially when you sneeze

 

Do You Think They Know

We the Standing Ones watch you each and every day

And we say to each other do you think they know

Should we show them, or should we just let it happen

We the Tree People are here to say to each and every one of thee, the ball is in your court

You have the answer, all you need to do is spread the word

Listen to the droplets, listen to the music within

For the Earth feels the vibration, the Trees do as well

 

Be Ready to Learn

And you my dears in your mere shell, some of you have learned to listen, some of you have learned to adapt

We the Tree People are here to suggest to you, keep a watchful eye about you

For the answers are in nature

All you need to do is to be ready to learn

This is not what you learn from a book

This is about observation, this is about time

And if you are inclined to spend the time observing, watching, relating, contemplating, anticipating, you too will see the connection

And with connections made, there will come a redirection

 

Bright Light

Listen to the Song of Nature, she sings it to you daily

Do you recognize the vibration, do you recognize the change

Will you be ready to rearrange some of the ways you have been privy to

Or will you just wait

You can skate in circles all you like

But we the Tree People are here to say to you, there is a Bright Light waiting to awaken you

When you see it, you will know

The Spirit of the Tree will remain with thee, always

See the Tree in her complete reality, for the Tree is far beyond just what you see
