A fresh new day arrives
To discover
To explore
To be awake
To be alert
For signs and wonders
Will the breeze carry the whisper
Or an eagle soaring above
Will a salmon leap for joy
Or a child laugh with glee
Who will bring a message today
I never know
Until I open my eyes and ears
All senses tuned
Waiting
Will it be the notes of a song
The wagging tail of a dog
Will it be in a dance with my sweetheart
A kind word from a stranger
Will it be a longing in my heart
Pulling me
reminding me
as I examine sacred texts
That I am loved in this world and
my name is known
In another world
Another dimension of pure
Love and light
Piercing through
Here and now
