I am one with the sun shining with the moon reflecting with the shadow casting I am one with the cardinal chipping with the hawk calling with the osprey diving I am one with the squirrel burying with the walnut sprouting with the bear foraging I am one with the magnolia expanding with the blackberry ripening with the bean climbing I am one with the rabbit munching with the fawn leaping with the snake striking I am one with the rose blossoming with the mimosa pinking with the lily unfurling I am one with the tree breathing with the sky weeping with the earth drinking I am one with the mother birthing with the spirit living with the body dying I am one with the universe moving with the song silencing with the dark stilling I am one with the crow cawing with the cat stretching with the wolf hunting I am one with the water flowing with the cloud streaming with the world turning I am one with the day dawning with the storm rising with the night descending I am one with the dove mourning with the hunter closing with the depth enveloping I am one with the ant working with the grasshopper devouring with the worm burrowing I am one with the salmon spawning with the eagle soaring with the grizzly fishing I am one with the infant cooing with the child smiling with the elder crying I am one with the artist creating with the builder constructing with the dozer demolishing I am one with the sphere circling with the line bending with the end beginning I am one with the wind winnowing with the ocean sweeping with the ground heaving I am one with the oak falling with the moss sprawling with the mighty decaying I am one with the mountain eroding with the sea crashing with the volcano exploding I am one with the grass greening with the hay drying with the foal feeding I am one with the bell tolling with the plow turning with the combine harvesting I am one with the fire burning with the passion churning with the dream awakening I am one with the heart reminiscing with the soul contemplating with the eyes closing I am one with the one that I am (c) MDS 6/25/22
Appalachian storytellers roll language into the still air as though their tongues are wrapped ’round a boulder of ‘baca
A lilting, a tilting, an unobstructed, obstructed flow of rhythm rounding the curve of the river
Up the mountain marching, slidin’ down into the holler, then blowin’ ’round the bend with laughter
It’s just growing pains You will out-grow them So they say It’s just part of life You will get better So they say Just let it go You can do it So they say Just believe in Him You must or else So they say They say a lot You listen, you try But I say It makes no sense It does not compute But I say Get out of my head Get out of my heart But I say They fool themselves They believe lies I say I out-grew the chains I let go of them
