The superior gardener works from an inner feeling
And intuitively knows what needs to be done.
Having studied and planted for years;
The garden and gardener are connected.
The plants, insects, birds and animals
Are all part of this work
And come together
With the earth, rain and sun
To form a living system.
Ever changing and developing:
It is an extension of an inner song.
Similarly, people are linked
Through an interplay of events and factors.
We are all rare flowers
That have the potential to open-up
In the bright sunlight,
And adorn the afternoon.
This is particularly true
As we connect with our Higher Nature;
Swaying to the caresses of the Cosmic Gardener.
