Spring Thoughts

Spring blossoms open up like mandalas

While the world’s emotions catch on cleansing fire

We fight  feeling like impalas

As we stare into the eyes of preadators who aspire

To kill this bounteous Mother, Earth

Sucking dry the energies of whom gave birth

To this wonderous opportunity

To live in peace, happy and free!

As we weave new tales with friends and lovers

Rolling through the storms and waves life wrought

May our hearts grow strong and recover

From the unwitting strife attachments brought

As the silver linings paint rainbows in the sky

May we be inspired to shine Light far and wide

Let us all support each other up

So we can join against evils like Trump

Sometimes we fall prey to distraction

Even as people come together to heal one another

May we all get better at weaving together intention and action

So instead of feeling grey we are always painting life with colour

As spring courses through the world like a river

May we emulate all great caregivers

Leading by example our tribe into a better world

In which all our beauties become unfurled

We have to show the greedy ones the better way

And divided we fall, we cannot let ourselves

Break down as we usher in this Golden new day

To progress infighting repels

As we come to a point where we to the Earth amend

May we also interpersonally mend

All wounds wrought in the times of darkness and fear

Because a better world together could be near.
