Decaf Moment: Spring Breath

Spring Breath:

Spring
whispers
in;

defying frost
with the
gentle strength
of
a
crocus
who,
hearing
the
ancient summons,
and
unperturbed
by
iced air
and
frozen earth,
simply
stretches
sunwards
and
skywards,
while,
from its
saffron gold
heart,
it
hymns
the seasons
wheel
to turn anew.
So too,
the soul,
when
awareness
dawns
of
Divine Love’s
call,
cracks
sin’s seaming
seal,
with tears
and,
emerges,
first
flowering frailly,
until,
with Grace
as
Gardener,
she
fruits
fully
in Spirit Spring’s
breathing
of
ever-new
beginning.
