Sacred Gift

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As Gardeners intent

on growing our own Food,

we are blessed

with an ever expanding glimpse

of how intimately our lives

are tied to the Earth,

her Soil,

Water,

Air,

Climate.

We are deeply grateful

to our Maker

for this great gift of Life.

In no way

do we seek

to diminish

that cherished Gift.

Why would we even consider it?

We want

to be fully present

in the Sacred Gift

of this Life.

Now.
