Blessings

May the road your spirit walks be
perfumed by the flowers of jasmine blooming
May your heart know love that comes only
from peace
May you be healed and well in the truest sense
of these words
May you rest then and know you're blessed
In every breath
A gift
In every rising sun
A chance to begin anew
Smile then in knowing the earth rises to greet you
Be love and be peace
for these are the truest of blessings
that are gifts to all humanity
When we become the roses no longer chasing rain
But lying happily open to that which replenishes
that which makes us whole again
We see the miracle in every drop
The beauty of every storm
The strength in fragility
and humbly there a baby crawls
inside fully aware of infinite possibility
knowing what we adults have forgotten
but spend the rest of our lives trying so hard
to recapture what was
what seems so lost
but is as it was
and as it always will be
as simple as a rain drop
falling into the sea
