The sun rises
high enough to
warm the sky
lifting from storm,

I rise to make
four prayers of
thanksgiving for
this struggling day,

for this good free
earth, for all
brothers and sisters,
for the rich blood

that runs through me
in a great circle
back into this
good free earth.

"I am not now that which I have been."

Julian~
This is such a serene piece -
I love the circles of life that bring us together.

Lovely thoughts.

Thank each of you for enjoying the simplistic descriptions found within the circle of life, its beauty and its unspoken languages. Shalom
