Turning green again
Turning toward the teacher
Turning toward the breast
Instinct
Nurturance
Learning
Remembering
(Or not)
The seed needs to be planted
We need grounding in fertile, rich
Dark soil, the stem growing and
Pushing up, flowing up
Toward the light
Plants, animals, fish, birds and we
Know how to grow even when
Tragedy strikes
We migrate, we stand tall
We fall down to our knees
Then, a sudden brightness appears
Transfiguration
The sun, rain, breezes
Plants, trees, and the mycelium network
Support our journeys
All we experience affects us and how
We move toward blooming and feeling
Our blooms sometimes blocked
For a time
At times, a second blooming
And then, when our bloom season is done
Our leaves, petals or fruit fall to the ground
Not in sorrow but just because
We may hibernate during the dark winters
Then later on, feel the tug to grow again
When Mother Earth and the Great Mystery
Tell us it is time
Blessed Be!
