i thank You God for most this amazing

i thank you

i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes

(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun’s birthday;this is the birth
day of life and love and wings:and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)

how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any—lifted from the no
of all nothing—human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?

(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)

May we all fully come to life and realize that we can give thanks and blessings in every movement and in every moment.

Happy Thanksgiving to Canada today, tomorrow and forever more to come.

Love the pileated woodpeckers. Their crazy laughs are fun and bold.

Every day is the perfect day to read these words my beautiful sister,

It seems to me
that Gratitude is like
a hidden flower

In every moment
she is waiting for us to find her

To unfurl her radiant gifts
into our lives

My love and gratitude to you always dear sister,

M

Hello Bern,

Yes, I agree, when we awaken, we give thanks every day for the blessings of this earth.

Pileated Woodpecker came to visit a few weeks ago, returning three days in a row to enjoy the red, ripe berries on the Dogwood tree. He came alone and was quiet. I did not hear his laughter but I enjoyed his beauty and presence, everyday he visited.

Thanks for your beautiful presence here!
