Brightest blessings to Sara and Sam!
Hear the flock give a welcoming hand!
Ah! The Springtime is come,
And it’s tenderly sprung
With the birth of the first newborn lamb!

Nature
Evolving
Invisible
Indivisible
Becoming visible
Showing more than we can see
Except through eyes open and free
Sum of parts that aren’t afraid to be
As One revolving Mind of clarity

Cause #Decima #Poem
Attend to Universal Laws
And better life with this one turn,
For at your core the Lifeforce burns!
With or without you, It evolves!
The Lifeforce is First Light and Cause,
Yet never does impose Its Will
And Purpose that we must fulfill.
We’re free to pick and free to choose
And take effect whiche’er we do,
Evolving Life—for Good or ill!

From Trash to Treasure #Limerick #Poem
When a din started out in the back,
How they took a dim view of the cat!
But you can’t blame the minx,
For whatever you think,
She found treasure in mountains of trash!
Seeds of Potential #Haibun #Poem
In my mind I return to the year I was 7 and in first grade. The puppets are the best part of the day, when Mrs. Basta tells a story or teaches us something with the lamb and other animals. I also like lunch. But perhaps my true favorite thing, even better than the puppets, is recess!
On the playground I collect fallen cherry buds with my friend, Iris. I put them in one of those little Halloween pumpkin buckets, the ones most kids use for trick-or-treating. I include grass, dirt, rocks, and whatever else I can find. Maybe I hope these seeds of potential will grow!

“The Red Bridge” #Music
This is a piece I wrote for one of Sue Vincent’s #Writephoto prompts
last May. I didn’t sing it at the time, but posted a meditation
version on lyre. You can listen to or download that
here.
This version has vocals, accompanied by ukulele. There’s also a viola
part, melody on alto recorder, and an alto recorder duet.
I hope you enjoy this arrangement!

A Chipmunk Sneezed #Poem
Through whirling wind and swirling leaves,
I’m sure I heard a chipmunk sneeze!
No other thing or person round
To make that funny “HAH!” like sound.
Through swirling wind and whirling leaves,
Could chipmunks, too, have allergies?
“Bless you!” I whispered, soft but clear
To let him know I care and hear.
Through whirling wind and swirling leaves,
I’m sure I heard a chipmunk sneeze!
