GOD BELOW THE ROOTS
God,
below the roots,
below everything, below everyone,
always pushing life up from below,
from within,
up out of the soil,
up out of the soul,
everywhere and always,
life,
always springing people
into new life, new beginnings, new growth,
roots, tree, branches,
reaching out for the stars,
reaching beyond its possibilities,
new leaves, new life,
God always new,
yet always old.
God, never let me forgot
I’m rooted in you.
