They will not object,
The soaring hawk, the cawing crow,
The singing finch, the cooing dove.
They will not object
When you smile back as they beguile;
When you answer them with words of love.

They will not object,
The herring, scrod, nor even deadly sharks;
Nor catfish, crayfish, cod, or breaching whales.
They will not object
When you begin to learn about their water ways;
When you understand; begin to tell their tales.

They will not object,
The roses in the fulness of their flower,
When you sigh their delicate hour.
They will not object
When you watch the ivy twine nor hushing pine
And vibrate with their silent patient power.

They will not object,
The rabbit hiding in his warren warmth
The squirrel nesting in her lair of leaves.
They will not object,
No matter how broad or deep your love
The Tree of Life still hopes and still believes.

I will not object
If you spend your life in seeking a being
To give its love to you and you alone
I will not object
Though you may find that path is filled with stone
And at the end, despite a life of trying, alone.

I will not object,
But just for something else to try, imagine
Every branch: The Tree of Life: Our Family.
The Tree will not object
If you throw yourself into loving Life
Whole-heartedly, eternally, entirely.
They will not object.
