CONNECTION

EARTH BLESSING
Mana: Hawaiian. Blessing, power from heaven

May the sun bless you
with laughter and fire
and the moon glow iridescence
upon your night journeys

May the rains of dawn refresh
each day, and trees
grow lush for shady retreat

May flowers rise
to lead your dance;
the wind chant your song

May birds feather your heart
to soften sorrow,
and the Earth clothed in green
velvet feed you eternity

May the words and deeds
of your life
be the mingling bands
of the rainbow

- Sue Holloway

Healing our Separateness
