Can you stitch
Energy unseen, plant,
Animal, and mind-stuff
Into one fabric?
The unseen
—The wind—
Touches my eyes
Touches my mind
First it makes the
Maple leaves dance
Then it bounces
Through my eyes to my
Imagination

Footprints in the Wind^sm # 1157

What is in our American-human heart, the one out of which we grew? Welcoming the huddled masses, giving beyond generosity to those suffering disaster, defending your freedom to say that with which I would disagree, participating in our own government, making bountiful feast with the natives whose shores we have come to as displaced strangers, rolling up our sleeves to get needed jobs done, rolling back and creating new frontiers….

Please pass it on.

We did not create the whole
Yet to it we add

:- Doug.

Floating, held, are we
in something much larger
this we set a-spinning

:- Doug.

Oceans of water
Oceans of air
Oceans of tears
A-dancing
Washing our shores
Hear: we live

:- Doug.

Be the presence. Be presence. Whole is here.
