Out beyondIdeas of wrongdoing And right-doing
There is a field...I'll meet you there.
When the soul,Lies down in that grass..The world isToo full to talk about..(Rumi)
wow! What a thread. liked the whole idea so much; beyond a checklist journey. Your kids are lucky mashallah.
Bring me the plant, My LoveThat leads the traveller to a placeWhere blond transparencies are formedAnd, as they form, take flightAnd life unmakes itself,From solid essence into hazy space;Bring me the sunflowerCrazed, with the Love of Light
Making an entry...
We must not always talk in the market-place of what happens to us in the forest.
(Nathaniel Hawthorne)

Where Are You . . . Bear !
The treeWhich moves someTo tears of joy...
Is in the eyes of othersOnly a green thing..
Which stands in their way.
(William Blake)
I think that I shall never seeA poem lovely as a tree...A tree whose hungry mouth is prestAgainst the earth’s sweet flowing breast;A tree that looks at God all dayAnd lifts her leafy arms to pray...
(Joyce Kilmer)
I am the heat of your hearth on the cold winter nights,The friendly shade screening you from the summer sun,And my fruits are refreshing draughts,Quenching your thirst as you journey on..
I am the beam that holds your house,The board of your table,The bed on which you lie,And the timber that builds your boat.
I am the handle of your hoe,The door of your homestead,The wood of your cradle,And the shell of your coffin...
