Desert Song (and ocean photo)

Notes of music
Fall into my soul
Beating
Against the hard
Compact surface
Running off

In a flood

And then drinks
Sucking greedily,
Needing more.
Never enough.

The soul softens,
Expands,
New life.
Reaching for more
Beginning
In a song.
Cascading rhythms
Refresh
The parched landscape.

Hope

There is always hope. Do not let the weight of all that has and can go wrong. Instead reach for what you can do.

And if you can't do anything today, remind yourself that there is tomorrow and the day after and the day after. You will have your chance to to act as that small flame of hope for our great mother, the Earth.
