    Deep Bows

    I know that spring is here
    When the fields are buttered
    With flowers, and melting with water

    When tall common egrets
    stretch their necks out and
    curve them into the curving hills.
    Or let their white robed shoulders
    Bow down to the cool wet grasses

    The table of creation has been set again.
    They dine in monastic silence
    while the cows eat, too
    While the kites fly,
    while the hawks hunt
    and Red-winged blackbirds
    take a long deep breath of sky
    and exhale above the marshes.
    And punctuate them with song!

    Perhaps they are calling us into their world
    Saying listen to our languages,
    Sing with us our sounds
    And be wholly here with us
    in the mystery,
    And feel how rich it is this
    springtime poem that is, for now
    the recurrence of the world.

    – Judith Stone
