Footprints in the Wind^sm # 1879

Let us remind us of ourselves
We are here
We can hear
This essence
Beneath the hurly-burly
Beneath the jittery
Things we must get done
Here
Here are we
Ourselves
We have worth
Just as we are here
Put again mind
And Heart
To—as we are—
Ourselves
It is this covered-over
Essence of us
Individually and together
Which Life itself
Demands of us
Uncover!
Set in motion!

Please pass it on.
