like interlocked arms – v2


the roots of the giant redwoods
not deep, like you might imagine
vulnerable to the wind,
their roots near the surface

intertwined with their neighbors
strong cords together
like interlocked arms
hands on another’s forearm

stronger together
in service to one another
bound with Jesus
alive in the vine
