We are nature...
bodies functioning to the cadence of the universe.
From our smallest cell to the trunk of our waist,
we mimic Mother Natural.
Our lives are the stories of the stars and
our footsteps pass dandelion seeds on to
fertilization and new life.
We are the tenders of the garden
au naturel,
feathering our homes for comfort.
Moods, spirits and human waters rise
and fall with the waxing and waning of the
moon while the children of the wind, earth
fire and air touch and taste each other’s elements.
We are made of hydrogen, oxygen and calcium,
nature's gases and chemicals
like the Periodic Table.
We are seasonal and change like the days
with times of brightness and darkness,
warmth and cold,
stormy then serene as summer rain.
Our skin hues are a human rainbow while
cells outnumber the grains of sand.
We are nature,
flourishing like flowers,
aging and then plucked.
So, rejoice, rejoice in the grandness of
the Body Universe Connection for
the more you know about yourself
the more you know about the world.
