From Ms. Paula
I'M STAYING INSIDE
God's love for us and all created beings
is our seed,
our powerhouse of potentiality.
Each stage of our growth of love,
a transformation --
swelling, root, sprout, leaf, trunk
branch, network below and above ground,
bud, flower and fruit -- canopy and compost
not once, but cycling, spiraling
into God-knows-where.
The colors, textures, fragrances of
love, joy, peace, patience
kindness, generosity, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control is
The Spirit that made you coming to fruition.
Use this time to wonder with your children at each sign of Spring--
discovery, naming, observing, caring for, being grateful,
becoming quietly aware of love.
