"BROKEN"

There is a tale about a tree,
  Whose branch broke off one day
 
It could not handle all the strain,
  And in the wind did sway
 
It broke apart one gusty day,
  And lies upon the ground
 
Cold but not unfeeling,
  Just hurt - not making sound
 
How you ask, it came to be
  I got to know this tree?
 
I know it deep within my heart,
  Because you see, this tree is - ME!

Is this death which I see before me,

With my back towards mortality?

Let me make haste into the world

I dread to enter, and as mush as I aspire,

Not one deed can be completed in order

To escape its inevitable presence.

So I leave thee with a reminiscence

Of what I have fabricated and with

Time we shall all face once again.

Live each day as it is, for the unknown

Force may compel it to be your last.

but often we look so long at the closed door that we

do not see the one which has been opened for us."

All of creation is sacred

No living thing should be above others

We are all equal.

Talk to the plants and animals

They will hear you.

Touch them and they will know you.

Listen to them carefully and remember

Sometimes they speak so quietly

You must listen with your eyes.
