Foundations

We fly into your branches,
For we know you will protect us.

Shelter from rain,
Source of nourishment.
A place of community.

From afar we see you as a landmark,
We will not loose our way.

Flying so high at times,
Tumbling to the ground when least expected.

The years have gained you deep roots,
We must rely on you till our wings are sound.

Strong winds flood this season of our lives,
You are our foundation.
