Now that the phase golden
The gift of your living is on
It’s in continuum to celebrate
And to communicate through
The tools of body, mind, and spirit
With the living-inmate
And the matters inert
In the nature to communion
Indeed an endless quest
In the 360 directions
Beyond petty barriers
Beyond denial, acceptance
Of our living planet
And in her soil so fertile
Sow the seeds of liberation.
