Life Precious

Life precious,
                                              Fragile, transient
                           Meandering stream ~ every pebble not shiny,
                           Blossoming flowers ~ every petal not velvety,
                                               Love, compassion
                                               Kindness, devotion,
                                               Conquer sadness

                    
                                                Genuine promise,
                                                Assurance sincere,
                                  As generous as all-encompassing sky,
                                  As tolerant as forgiving Mother Earth,
                                                  Happiness grows,
                                                  Like trees,
                                                  Bestowing all


                                                  Azure horizon,
                                                 Mountains calm,
                                    Envelope the world with infinite peace,
                              Heart mesmerized, filled with ecstatic wonder,
                                                 Thankful, Humbled,
                                                  Blessed, Fortunate,
                                                  Blissful Universe
