Viriditas III

Slower speed
for deeper looking.
The questions become
richer. And richer.
I belong to a new story
grounded in green being.

To all its shimmerings,
I belong.
Blessed I am each day,
a tiny shining human spinning
on the sacred garden earth.
Every day I offer gratitude

for the treasures,
the ongoing enrichment
brought to me by aging.
The rest of my days
are for listening
to the living world.
