A reciprocal relation
\nAnd functionality
\nIs seen a lot in Nature
\nIts complementary
\nAnd honest interconnection
\nReally answering to
\nNeed for where there is wildness
\nThe weak may not get through<\/p>\n
The mistletoe a parasitic plant
\nThat likes to grow
\nOn trees with nuts or berries
\nOr fruits for as we know
\nOutside the wind and rain can be
\nVicious and can mean
\nWithout some help a foot hold
\nThe chances appear lean<\/p>\n
And so the Oak and the Apple
\nAttract the birds along
\nThe Mistle Thrush loves mistletoe
\nAnd tells us with her song
\nShe will take a cat on and
\nPut up a display
\nAnd has been known
\nTo even frighten the human tribe away<\/p>\n
For she loves to eat the berries
\nAnd sitting on other trees
\nWill pass them through her body
\nAnd the viscum then will seize
\nA chance to stick down on a branch
\nIts all done by design
\nGAIA Our great Mother
\nSees everything is fine<\/p>\n
Creating this consensus
\nAlmost every day
\nAnd in Open woods this pretty bird
\nHas a lot to say
\nShe sings her glorious melodies
\nWhen her task is done
\nAnd she also works with Holly
\nAnd Yew where dreams are spun<\/p>\n
Quietly out of ear shot
\nIn the lustre of a day
\nPooping on the branches
\nAnd then flying away
\nTURDUS Please forgive the pun
\nIt is latin for thrush
\nVIcivorus thats its title
\nAnd its always in a rush<\/p>\n
In many ways its wizardry
\nGoes unnoticed by
\nThe human tribe who walk the woods
\nWhich my dears is why
\nThe druids clearly realized
\nThe magic that was there
\nThis borrower of existing growth
\nBrings light to everywhere
\nTis here today we come to pay
\nRespects and we can see
\nThe ritual of the Mistletoe
\nAnd how it came to be
\nAs sacred as the day is
\nLong
\nIn ancient druidry<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
