Sweet Bud

Oh,
sweet bud
of new life
bursting,
mystery unfolding,
circling
green
spring light,
emerald sun,
lapis planet of earth and water
stirs our soul,
this ache for life,
this moment
of being
human,
spirit and matter
remembering,
seeking,
forgetting lost
in the joy of discovery,
in the thread
that weaves,
in the silence sounding
of our hearts
beating,
opening to life…
