the soul's balance
spring equinox
the time of (almost) equal balance
of night and day points us to some potent
lessons that we can embrace
through nature’s magnetic
and bright expression
most clearly
we see nature
around us growing back
following it’s dying back
after the dark cold
of winter, the insulation
and inward time, we are still
here
it's almost unbelievable
that everything starts to enliven
all around us again
after the silence
and stillness
of winter
nature performs
an absolute miracle
as it grows through the dirt
of our own souls sending messages
for growth and new life
all around us
and within us all
are the seeds of
potential
but did you know
for a seed to achieve
it’s greatest expression
the shell cracks and it becomes
totally undone and turns
wholly into something
else
the mind boggles
at the forces of nature
so vast, we can never fully
understand this phenomenon
of which we are and which asks us,
can we trust miracles, can we trust
in that which we do not
understand
can we trust that
when it is so dark
and so cold, and we
feel so alone, and broken
and flawed, and scared,
can we trust that spring
will once again come,
and life will bloom
anew
logic is easy
beauty and the majesty
of our mysterious existence
is what feeds our souls
