 Tuuru

In Siberia, the larch tree

Was called Tuuru by shamans who

Believed that this conifer be

Cosmic gift from spirits that grew,

Allowing the shamans to go

Into the outermost realms of

The night skies for wisdom to know.

The Tuuru nurtured shaman souls,

Better their travel through its wood

To connect to the higher goals

Of seeking knowledge for the good.

The Tuuru let the shamans soar,

Keeping connected to its core.
