bloomed

ah, to have the faith of a flower~
to be ever so
gentle
with myself
and to trust that i am
supported by
breath
and
Lightand
my faith
i
open to receive great Light
like when the silent petals of a flower
attentively peel open so as to
give space for another petal to open
and then another
the faith~fullflower exposes its vibrant
dimensionality
graciously
presenting itself
bloomed
{like paradise on a stem}
the Great Light
can continue to nourish
the bloomedflower,
likewise
the bloom can become a great source of nourishment

Michelle, you look so happy - your smile says it all -- you're a spring flower that blooms all year.

Your posting reminded me of a favorite line from a book," How fragile love is. How delicate and small in its first buds, when it's just an idea, a wish filled with hope." That's the promise of spring. Thank you for sharing your joy and providing inspiration.
