Steadfast Ballerina


 Ballerina
I see you every day
As I walk past with Milo
Your branches in pose
Reaching the Heavens
A certain daintiness
Yet rooted in the soil
The Earth
Mother of Mothers

Autumn glow beginning
Your leaves redden
Excited somehow I feel
Eager for the coolness
The breeze of the Fall
Oh Ballerina
I love you so
Always grateful
You are steadfast
Season come, Season go

Inspired by your rooted, endless changing
Natural and easy
I open to your ancient wisdom
Of steadfast hereness
Through all the coming & going
