Sunset in a wilderness -
that is where I feel
the substance of thee

take a cue from the beaver
who builds a sanctuary
of love – for me?

thunder clouds, rain and storm
cannot be sensed but seen
through silent eyes

wise, you are
and you have been with us
for an everlasting
Time
because
you are the Sun
you are all
and every particle
of our being
