RIME


Da dah!
We wake to your glory, great one!
You’ve bejewelled everything,
Transforming the ordinary.
And I’ve got to say.
It’s miraculous
And beautiful.
But the ordinary still gets my vote:
Looking harder to see the divine
In a black thorn,
Finding God in clay,
Blades of grass,
A fir cone.
In other words,
We don’t need your glad rags
To start in.
Anyone, sing.
Anyone, go and look.
Anyone, put a pen to a white page.

Do what you can
With what you've got.

ZEN TODAY

Beating myself up,
Who is doing the beating?
And who is being beaten?
