Illumingarden

Poem inspired by Tulip Photo By Susan Shaffer in her La Siembra Farm— “Time to sew the seed”

We are the light, we receive

We are the light, we give

Glowing here in the Illumingarden

All life force energy is relived

Poured into from beyond

Rising up from within

Planted here in the Illumingarden

All of LIFE our spirit kin

Garden embers neither burn or smoke

Only lingering lights of

tomorrow’s reveal

Love tended & consumed,

swallowed light

Swells the glow within, unstoppable—

unable to conceal

Without growing reciprocity between

How barren our hearts and earth

When All that is seen and unseen

Illuminated in the renewal of rebirth

We are the light, we receive

We are the light, we grow

Glowing here in the Illumingarden

All life force energy of same flow

**HAPPY May Day, I am remembering today my childhood delight in dropping baskets of flowers on my neighbors porches, then ringing the bell & door dashing 🌸

May this poem be my May Day basket onto your porch!
