Delicate edges,
Crystal clear waters,
Evanescent,
Intrinsically essential to all that is,
Sensitive diversity.
Connection,
Simplicity,
Aspiring to truth,
Presenting reality,
Heartfelt.
Humanity at its most vulnerable,
Understanding of its place,
Remote,
Gathering only what is needed,
One of all.
Devoid of power bias,
Local to the core,
Natural,
Man made,
Intersections that matter.
Rhythms of nature,
Living with the seasons,
Joyful,
Grateful,
Content with nothing.
Holy,
Sacred vessel,
In awe of water, earth, sky and stars,
Pure,
Devotion to the unknowable.
The soul of our times,
Seeing with the heart,
Hearing through touch,
Communicating across color,
Through language of the ages.
Desperately trying to understand and be understood,
Retelling of old,
Sharing,
Sounding an alarm,
Announcing, shaking, quietly.
Grace,
Effortless elegance,
Mutuality,
Synergy,
And beauty, above all beauty.
