Ariane Hofmann

Our Tree

I lean against a tree
its leafs above me
its roots beneath me
its trunk behind me
 
I lean against a tree
so mighty and big
in its branches lives a world
 
I lean against a tree
so deep in the holy earth
its roots touch pure water
 
I lean against a tree
so strong and steady
no axe can harm it
 
And I feel
the shadow
the grass
the bark
 
And I remember the day
we planted
the seed
