AUM

AUM to the leaves that will give me shade

AUM to each and every blade

AUM to the stones to my left and right

AUM to the sun and dawn's delight

AUM to the grapes on the vine

AUM to that which will eventually be wine

AUM to the far purple tower

AUM to peace that we will shower

AUM to the people who brought me here

AUM to all far and near

AUM to sinews coursing through me

AUM to spinning atoms from shoulder to knee

AUM to the thoughts bouncing back and forth

AUM to that which causes frown or mirth

AUM to time and to space

AUM to dreams we chase

AUM to the to do lists and urge

AUM to the stillness that begins to emerge

AUM to that which is real

AUM to that which will itself reveal
