The bird song is heard... Balance ~ Bounty ~ Beauty ... and so known THE WORD...


Balance ~ Bounty ~ Beauty

Mother Earth Father Sky
bring forth time ever NOW

A rock, a crystal, a gem
to hold the textures and light of change

A flower, a bloom
hold to the ever emergent grace of BEING
wondrous forms of delight and PRAISE

A tree deeply rooted and towering free
giving each season its change, its growth,
purpose ever anew in bough and branch

SPRING the present expression of
balance ~ bounty ~ beauty
heed its call to

Spirit
Passion
Resolve
Inspiration
Nurturance
Grace

Be it of Mother Earth
Be it of Father Sky
This the blessings
Live in balance
Enjoy the bounty of THE WAY
Be the beauty
Fill your heart with the knowing gift of NOW
This the splendor of time, this Creation's vow.
