Peggy Sue McRae – Breathe Deep
Breathe deep, the tree.
Breathe in, the tree breathes out.
Breathe out, the tree breathes in.
Feel the bond of shared breath.
Mourn deep, the sea.
Tears returning, cloud to ocean,
Life’s watery womb.
Share the bond of our origin.
Die deep, the earth.
Blood and bone feed the soil.
Spirit soars to mountain.
No distinction between self and planet.
Live deep, the fire
With passion and brilliance,
balancing sacrifice and desire.
Burn into the night.
