From whence, inspiration?
Breathe in and open with prayer
Breathe out and out it flows
—————————————-
Every part of creation
breathes and bathes and is
part of creation
Blessed by the presence of Divine
unmistakably filled,
surrounded by grace
Tenacious as bamboo
Resilient and strong
He grew where he was planted
In the center of his soul
On the banks of Life’s flow
Inspiration blossoms there
Like weeds of truth
Beautiful and ungroomed
Awaiting his arrangement

Roots of a songmaker

Who loves the scorpion-
the big ugly bug with deadly sting?
God does.
Brother scorpion is part of all creation
just as are we
_____________
Yes!
Yes to life
Yes to all that life delivers!
Yes to the full expression
of Spirit in my life!
Sometimes
it appears
we are not complete, whole
It is an illusion
We are an integral
part of the whole
of creation
