Solstice sun unseen
grey clouds gently raining
Spring's apple blossoms
***
Winter's strength comes from
a deliberate stillness.
Choose to rest awhile
***
The puddles of rain
offer portals to heaven
if we just look in
***
As trees turn inward
Fear not that the sap runs slow
For buds lie just below
***
This eve again I pray
for peace and understanding
as I do each day
***
What would I have me
do, say, be, feel, and stand for
in the name of love?
