Karen brought me two wonderful poems from the incredible book "Love Poems from God" by Daniel Ladinsky.
They both are by St. John of the Cross.
A RABBIT NOTICED MY CONDITION
I was sad one day and went out for a walk;
I sat in a field.
A rabbit noticed my condition and
came near.
It often does not take more than that to help at times -
to just be close to creatures who
are so full of knowing,
so full of love
that they don't
- chat,
they just gaze with
their
marvelous understanding.
THEY CAN BE LIKE A SUN
They can be like a sun, words.
They can do for the heart
what light can
for a field.
So, sit with words and rabbits today. The world is young, and the fields are light.
Blessings to All,
Cathy
