When your heart speaks

The trees go by me as

Though I’m going

No where

They are taller than

My dreams

Will

Ever reach

As I stumble through their

Leaves on the

Ground

I seek what they have

In this

Ever-changing world

A path laid out

F or them

As they have been

Planted

As I listen to my heart

I hear what it

Says

In taking each step with

A

Readying pace

A stride that takes

All that it needs

To be lifted

And to grow

Where it stands

Where footsteps left have

Been pondered

And followed

In knowing my path

Is there waiting for

Me

I will choose strength, love and courage

As my fellow

Travellers,

My guides and

My light

As it is your heart

That holds

Your stories

Treasures

And dreams

Once it speaks

You will know

What it is

Saying
