the whispers of the trees

when I was a child

I danced in an open field of wonder

I heard the whispers of the trees

Telling me their secrets

I watched the strange ways of man

And wondered how I would ever fit in

to this world

going to school

we donned a uniform

I see the photo

where my little hand

holds tension

thus began the shutting down

the folding up

the closing in

the becoming split

and I am still not entirely

free of it

but at least now again

my soul can dance

and every once in a while

the whispers of the trees

still speak to me

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.
