Tree of life

Humming of life in the tree

By Tabitha HinkleyPublished about a month ago Updated about a month ago 1 min read
A way of knowing a person's life frame

A lone tree in the ground intertwining the earth

A tree strong in its roots connected to the ground

The roots of the lone tree beautiful and humming full of life

A beautiful tree from afar and so symmetrical up close

The roots of the tree having the strength of loved ones and of oneself

Some roots broke off but still beautiful in its journey

A journey of friends and family that helped you through other roots creating overlapping joy

The ending of roots usually full of sadness

Most roots sturdy and grounded

The tree grounded in love

Grounded in goodness, peace, determination, and hard work

Roots of children, of a soulmate, angels that are watching, and the very essence of who you are as a person

Some of the roots torn and broken with the people that have impacted your life but were temporary

A strong trunk of the tree humming with the energy inside of you

Realizing how strong and beautiful you are

Showing what a resilient person you are

Guiding up to the branches of the tree

Each branch making memories that have brought us to the present

A branch each for family that has made us realize our potential

Striving for love and compassion while being with us

Smaller branches on some of these for those who have passed away

Little flowers created for the healing and guidance from death and heartache of life

Twigs attached into intricate designs showing the beauty of what life has been for you

The leaves on the branches representing the present, beautiful yet how easily dies

Blossoms that create something new making you into a divergent person each time

A tree of life humming with the electricity of who you are from the roots in the ground to the blossoms in the sky
