Quenching the Tree
.
Between the I and thou
Between the Tree and me
Is the Mystery of Being
Every interaction,
Every action,
Every relationship
Is an opportunity for sanctification —
An offering to God
This is Torah
The Torah where we can dive deep
Into the well, watering the tree,
Quenching our parched hearts
For God to see
Inspired by Opening 29,
