Can you promise the Sun to wake up with the same integrity?
Look directly at the morning and vow to exude that kind of warmth
Match the mirth of this Earth and walk lightly across life
Without hurting the sentiments, discriminating life with frugal sense
Let consciousness be like a happily flowing brook
Searching for generous tributaries, creating arteries to sustain life
Allow the same abundance, patience, the stillness to endure
Roots can go deeper, nourish and replenish the sacred juices
Of life, intimate nature, a cosmic wonder of patterns woven
Cradling life, love, eternity, the dreams of the pure souls
