God says "yes"

“yes is a world

& in this world of

yes live

(skilfully curled)

all worlds”

― E.E. Cummings

_______________________________

today I awoke

to the Sacred “yes”

to the rising sun

the singing birds

to the warmth of a spring breeze

to the wonder of budding trees

I had to choose to hear “yes”

and not  “no”

for there is much in the world

that is not beauty and not love

O beloved

may I always choose to hear “yes”

see “yes”

and may I always choose

to be ‘yes”
