Sacred was talking

Part of doing something is listening. We are listening. To the sun. To the stars. To the wind.”

― Madeleine L'Engle, Swiftly Tilting Planet

Sacred was talking this morning

through brilliant sun

chattering birds

through the breeze in the pines

and the fragrance of grace

through the coolness of the breeze

and the warmth

of golden rays

Sacred was talking through

dancing calves

and stolid cows

through deer lightly leaping

and the slick red fox

slinking

Sacred was talking

through the killdeer

who accompanied me

guiding me along my way

Sacred was talking
