Awake
















i thank You God for most this amazing  

day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes 


(i who have died am alive again today, 

and this is the sun’s birthday;this is the birth
day of life and of love and wings;and of the gay
great happening ilimitably earth) 


how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any - lifted from the no
of all nothing - human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?


(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)
