Yew Tree

Lyrics:

Yew tree broad with your roots down deep

Standing guard over winter's sleep

Many lifetimes passing, you live on

Sacred yew tree, enduring strong

A lovely singer of mine asked if I knew any songs about yew trees. I didn't, though I'm sure there are some wonderful ones! This is my simple two part winter song, referencing the longevity and protective qualities that led our ancestors to believe yew trees to be sacred.
