| The Path through the Pines |
"Ope your doors and take me in,
Spirit of the wood,
Wash me clean of dust and din,
Clothe me in your mood.
Take me from the noisy light
To the sunless peace,
Where at mid-day standeth Night
Signing Toil's release.
 | |
| Summer Clouds above the Trees |
All your dusky twilight stores
To my senses give;
Take me in and lock the doors,
Show me how to live.
Lift your leafy roof for me,
Part your yielding walls:
Let me wander lingeringly
Through your scented halls.
 | |
| Happy Sentinel at Springdale |
Ope your doors and take me in,
Spirit of the wood;
Take me -- make me your next of kin
To your leafy brood."
~ Ethelwyn Wetherald
"A message for humanity from the trees:
Not only are we rooting for you,
We are sticking up for you!"
