Fly with a gull across the lake
as sunlight colors the western sky
catch a flimpse of the grandeur of creation
envision the spirit of life
exemplified in every living thing.

Keep the wondrous spirit of wonder
always.

For the call of winds
the love in the songs
of the birds and the insects
the joyousness of the woods
and the open fields
reach those attuned to the timelss
rhythm of the universe
those who understand
and love it all
as one. ~ Gwen Frostic
