Brief Meditation

"What is man that he should make much of his years though they bend him like a heavy
snow?" - Black Elk

   Winter becomes spring
flowers bloom
    Ice turns to a running stream
     Dawn comes again 
               let's relate to 
the seasons 
             as 
             we 
             must   
     after a spring
rain the land gives off 
       a marvelous scent
You can hear the 
        birds 
and almost taste their "chirps"
