Like A Tree Of Light

I am sitting on the pedestal of hope My roots tethered to the ground My dream majestically towering above my shadowless frame I am a species of the most sacred tree of life I welcome every form of life To perch on my branches of consciousness Just for a little while Or to build a nest That is made of peace, hope and Love It is only the beginning of the season of light All of my fruits are meant for you This knowledge is not mine It is the spirit of Love that has sent me To be the beacon of hope and the radiating tree of life Don't marvel at the words, drink from the palm of being It is the substance of being that needs your utmost attention Look within and don't ever look back You are like a flowing river All your waters are precious To nourish the substance of life Do not fear, this knowledge is not toxic It is made up of light And it is the substance of Silence You can invite your friends To gather around the womb of life Your family as well are invited I am a tree of light My branches are never full of shadows My leaves are made up of pure intentions Unconditional Love is my state of being You are most welcome to take home some of my hospitality And spread it around your homes It is the stuff of mystery, to Love beyond logic But I am the mystery that is unfolded ©Kenneth Maswabi
