Appreciate the Fullness of Nature

Air moving quietly through verdant grasses
Bring secrets of my ancestors into my foresight
Flowers and trees reveal full energy of cycles
An opportunity to replenish in ways of Father Sky

Lying down in soft meadow, soaking up the solitude of Mother Sun
Still myself, in meditation, appreciating the fullness of nature
Pondering the secrets of Brother Woods and Sister Stream.
Languishing in the moment, seeing what my ancestors saw.

Feeling the arrival of spring, leaning into the joy of the moment.
Free to be open and vulnerable, knowing the animals see me 
Another spirit, not an enemy, rather an unencumbered friend.
Freedom to be as the Great Spirit intended, my pure spirit self.
