The Musical Journey of Mycelium
"In the quiet of the earth, mycelium whispers unity, teaching us that even in silence, we can connect, share, and thrive" CJB
Beneath the earth, a silent thread,
A network vast, unseen, widespread,
Mycelium, the forest's breath,
Connecting life, from birth to death.
Mycelium's whisper,
a song beneath the soil,
Trees in conversation,
sharing secrets about toil.
This fungal web, a messenger fine,
Through roots and leaves, it does entwine,
It trades with trees, nutrients and more,
A symbiotic dance, on nature's floor.
From tree to tree, it sends its call,
A system wide, a fungal sprawl,
Warnings of pests, or sharing of light,
Mycelium makes the forest bright.
Mycelium's whisper,
the earth's quiet voice,
A network of life,
a natural choice.
When trees are wounded, or in distress,
The mycelium will always do its best,
It nurtures, heals, connects, and mends,
A life support for the greenest of friends.
In this vast network, life does thrive,
It's how the forest can always survive,
A lesson in unity, in silent strength,
Mycelium's length goes to any length.
Mycelium's whisper,
a song that echoes far,
Trees in connection,
another hint of who we are.
So remember, when walking in a wood,
There's more of its life to be understood,
Mycelium, the hidden guide,
Teaching us all how to abide.
