Springtime in hard times

Originally published in French

Stirred by spring light
nature reveals its identity
reilluming its colors, its forms
reorchestrating its silences, its songs
tirelessly
        tidily
              irrepressibly. 

Likewise, sedentary thoughts
stirred by Spirit, Truth 
are awaking from the wasteland of materiality
yearning for the atmosphere of Love
to ripen in infinite Life
confident in the restoring action of Mind 
the only creator.

In the face of weakness
Principle-impelled thoughts 
sprout spiritual strength.
In the face of sorrow
Soul-filled thoughts
enable us to cross the valley of tears 
with the promise: 
God will make it an oasis.
