The Unity of Life
The Unity of Life
The shining sun
Its ray of light
And the warmth on my face
Are one
The mountain’s melt water
The course of the river
Its mouth and the ocean
Are one
The mother’s love
The milk of her breast
And her thriving son
Are one
The father a teacher
A teacher of love
For he and his sons
Are one
The teacher’s wise words
The student’s open ear
And the burgeoning mind
Are one
The woodworker’s vision
His benchmark precision
And the beauty of the grain
Are one
The teacher of Spirit
And those invited to see it
By the example of her life
Are one
Their paths divergent
Customs and colors different
Yet all Earth’s peoples
Are one
The eye of the Bowman
The arc of the arrow
And the mark of life
Are one
Just Beautiful!
