Inspired by the first stanza from this piece by e.e. cummings:
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 love and wings:
and of the gay great happening illimitably 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)
LYRICS:
we thank the gods for this most amazing day
thank you sweet goddess for healing us this way
thank you my friends for being here to pray
our hearts overflowing, so in love we play
(The music in my head merges this chant with all but the first layer of the song "We Have Heaven" by Yes. Someday I'll record it all!)
