The Young Nymph flies

When the old oak creaks his depth of knowledge
The young nymph sighs
When he twists and turns and reveals his sadness
The young nymph cries

When his memories pour forth.. in torrents or droplets
The visions blurred revealed with patience
His branches grown with leaves spring green
The young nymph knows what he has seen

When the young nymph speaks of hopes unreached
The old Oak drinks
When the young Nymph sings of light and future
The old oak drinks

He drinks from the well of natures´ bounty
He draws upon the winds cool change
He sips the wine of her sunshine glory
He laps up faith and reaches out… again

The young Nymph flies

Never give up hope Ray, never give up. Hope the oak is fine and healthy.
Nice write.
