poem and story
written May 1st - June 2020
.........................
THIS SONG CAME UP IDENTICALLY AT THE TIME WHEN A NEW BEEING OF A CLOSE FRIEND WAS BORN.
" Levin " was born on a rainy day 1st May, and it symbolizes the fertility and vitality of the grounds we live on.

rain drops
raindrops oh drops
could you come ?

Come and fall om the earth now ?!
Ease my pain, ease your pain
ease our pain
there´ll be some things to gain

Once you´ve lived in the woods
once you´ve felt how the roots
how the trees and bees and beings connect
how communication of symbioses relflects

to gather – together
soak oh be soaked by rain and feel
the rhythms and circulations and see
protect the roots under your feet
might we know what WE - plants need?

In Autumn 2019 people became activists. A forest got occupied by hearts and hopes with ropes.
Why ? To save hundreds of species in a more than 200-yearold ecosystem which is „drinkingwater-protection-area“ in the center of germany.
A place - a forest which provides water for thousands& thousands of people!
A highway was intended to connect other highways with each other- right trough the forest!
Dannenröder Wald. We call it „DANNI“ is part of the new reality where human laws count more than law of nature !

Within 2020 this forest became clearly a symbol for the need of traffic revolution. It is no longer a wish. It is an international need. The need of care and perservation! Why is the need of old forests still questioned by companies? Too often economic interests are on top of decisions !

Grounds get taped by concrete. Roads and industries provide grey stability and fast movement.
Is this what we need ? What did you feed yourself today ?

Back to the forest: In autumn 2020 hundreds of human beings created homes to save the forest with their passion, their frozen hands, loud voices, tears & heartbeats for DANNI and hope. Hope for another world which sees and feels and does not stop fighting for existance of nature&knowledge.

How do I care for inner and outer nature right now?

Now- the highway will be buildt with tons of concrete on old cleared grounds and the best soil for drinkingwater. Sounds will change, birds leave and another 50km will become part of airpullution while soil dries and forests worldwide are dying. Will we dry up ?
Will we dry and will roots have capacity to save enough water?

Let the rain and the juices of earth circulate like the blood in our veins.
Let it float, let it rise.
Let it drip, drop, drip drop....
