Poems about trees: reflections on nature

TREE MEDITATIONS
 

Trees are our natural companions breathing in what we breathe out, breathing out what we breathe in.   Trees reflect something of ourselves - a history, an appearance, a position, an ecology.
 
Trees are energy fields with their own resonance and aura.

Hug a tree and feel the pull of its energy.   Meditate on a tree - listen to its message, feel its energy, share its history, understand the ambiguity and paradox of nature, accept the insight offered.

Nature reflects the paradox and ambiguity of our lives and its creative resolution of opposites.

Nature portrays the interconnectedness of our lives and the fact that the welfare of the whole depends on the welfare of the individual and vice versa.

Trees reflect their ecology just as we do - the nurturance, conflict, competition, interconnection, history, interdependence, shared energy. 

Trees  reflect our lives if we look, listen and learn.

Here are some of my own tree meditations expressed as poems.
