Wind swift, lightning bright
Lantern moon's silvery shine
showers the earth with dreams of softer tomorrows,
and tender hearts,
and warm smiles
and small things honored,
and lives made well by acts of kindness,
and green hills damp with dew
and fertile with mulch and mushroom mycelium,
that life may grow anew each day
in beauty and graceful balance.

The gentle ways are calling
Listen...Do you hear?
