How could anyone sleep on a morning like this?
You are beholding one of our retreatants saying,
"Hola" to the new day.
Or, perhaps she is saying NADA!
How much we need such moments!
How much we need such mornings!
Drink in the wondrous inheritance of being!
Sip the nectar of morning!
O dear medicinal morning!
Awaken the mystic in me!
Awaken the poet and the monk!
How could anyone sleep on a morning like this?
