Trust. Faith.

The sun arrives,
poking through tall trees
as steam rises from river
and sky turns pale

Slowly and surely
precious life all around
stirs anew for another day

What can one do
emerging from darkness
but align with
this light of hope?

To let it fill your
weary heart with love
to sustain you for
another day, another life.

What can you do
but live life like
all God's creatures,
going with the flow?

To take that hope,
turn it into faith
and to trust in the
infinite wisdom
of the universe.

No one said it was easy
but look to nature again,
see how the trees and flowers
fight their way through
dark soil towards the light?

They trust. They have faith.
They sustain themselves
on the love of nature
and the universe.

Let your heart and soul
rise not only with the sun
but also with the moon.
Rise with love
in all ways, all times.

For that is the secret
of the universe.
Just look to Mother Nature
and know in the unknowing.
