The Land Within

Each leaf is full of memories.
With happiness and joy pulsing through their veins.
Fuelling the forest
Lifting it up, as the joyful spirit runs through every root.

Each crevice tells a story.
Where the trees dance like magnificent creatures,
And the sounds of beautiful, chirping birds fill our ears to the brim.
Every experience is held and kept within.

Each glimmer on the water’s edge, holds a secret.    
They keep them close in pockets of golden sunshine
Like fairies. Soaking up the iridescent rays and drifting along. Peacefully.
Waiting. Just waiting. For you to lean in close as they offer a share of the treasures to tell. 

Each beetle carries the future.     
Every small bug in the depths of the grand place
Plays its part.
Replenishing the earth in the dusty brown soil.   

Each revitalising breath I take.
Slowly in and out.
Fresh mossy air fills my lungs, as the cool aroma remains reminiscent.
As I explore, the secrets of the land within.
