Here

Here is the power

in what you are,

Here is the ground

you stand on,

Here is the soil

that richly holds your soul

nourished in its springy living web.

Here is the knowing

what your light can do,

Here is the strength

that fuels your song,

Here is the quiet

that births the hallowed music

that lifts you up

and bears you home.
