Underground, Overground….

Roots as big as crown,
Don’t forget, don’t forget;
Deep under the ground,
Get them wet, get them wet.

It is tempting to look out at a natural scene and simply see what is presented to you, what is visible and obvious on the surface. But take the time to consider that for every plant and tree above ground there is a root system below ground, anchoring, supporting, and drawing up nourishment. Now look again. Feel into the ground below, into the space beneath. We too have these hidden places, there below the surface. Feel into them now and then. We are not what we appear to be.
