This Day
Sun shines on nature's face
Wind whispers bough to bough
Air fills with nectar's fragrance
Present day finds harmony
This is a sacred place
This is a holy time
Strangers meet upon a walk
Kind words exchanged as gifts
Smiles take the place of sun
Earth's brightness shows increase
Children laughing with abandon
Fleeting moments throb with life
Human spirits fill with lightness
Weary tension dissipates
Arms reach out to touch another
Touch extends to warm embrace
Love says it all in silence
A pair transforms itself to one
Past and future are released
Present gently fills with joy
Nothing further is desired
Each moment is itself complete
Welcome to a sacred place
Welcome to a holy time
