Amid sun-bleached rock and barren sand
Green arises and makes its stand
Waters deep beneath the ground
A place where life can be found
Our lives too may seem that way
In need of an oasis amidst our daily fray

Into a wood we go –
Not of pine, nor spruce, nor firs –
Not into a dark rain-forest’s crush –
Where lush canopies the sky obscures.
Into a wood we go –
From the desert sands so bleak-
Into the oasis’ waiting palms
Their welcoming shade we seek.
