paying tribute to mother earth...
Happy Earth Day!
my dear, talented friend, Carrie, from Original Hardware, passed on a beautiful poem that is just perfect for today. Here's an excerpt:
Listening to Spring,
by Macrina Wiederkehr
How quietly the earth breathes forth new life.
How eagerly the sun bleeds forth the spring.
I am listening.
I am listening to seeds breaking open,
to roots growing strong beneath the ground
to green shoots rising up from winter wombs.
I am listening to thorns blossoming,
to barren branches laughing out new growth,
to wildflowers dancing through the meadows.
I am listening.
I am listening to the growing
in the garden of my heart.
I am listening to my heart
singing songs of resurrection.
I am listening to the colors of life.
I am listening.
I am listening to winter
handing over spring.
I am listening to the poetry of spring.
I am listening.
