Spirit Wings

Easter. First comes Good Friday, a day of darkness and pain.
Then comes Easter: the time of new life, daffodils, baby chicks, rabbits,
when the sun is brighter, the grass greener. We rejoice
in all things new, the promise of change, transformation ..

SPIRIT WINGS                                          

those who feel
the song
of the mountains

touch the growth
of arbutus

those who walk
ocean-side
under sunrise                                                           

hear the psalm
of the earth

and are lifted
on wings of light
