The Elder Tree
The Unseen Side
Give a part of yourself to the unseen side
There is a side to life that seems to hide
It’s a side you feel, not a side you see
but when we peel back the seams of reality
we find different forces, untapped sources
more resources, than we’ll ever need
Now these forces can be found in trees
I’ve felt them myself, they’ve whispered to me
but to gain entry we must give something back
give up our time; make our own pact
So lady Elder, mother of the wood, journey taker
dark heart of the earth and poetry maker
I give you part of my soul and part of my mind
you’re guiding my pen, i’m dressing your shrine
I swear to be kind, please share the divine
together combined, let’s see what we find
