A Song of the Land

When I’m out with a tree or in a field or elsewhere in nature, I sometimes find that a melody comes to me. The song contains qualities that I’m experiencing about the place, plant, etc. Sometimes I refer to these songs as medicine songs, because they hold the medicine of the land or being for me. Sometimes I call them deer songs, because they arise when I am in a state of deep listening.

Or I call them just ‘songs’, because that’s what they are!

Here’s one that came to me when I was out in a field one day. What music or magic arises in you when you’re feeling deeply peaceful in and with the natural world? Remember, ‘music’ comes in forms (as does magic!), not just as a song you can hear. Please share in the comments below!
