Spirit of Spring



If we trust God to act in us, God will act in us. 
This is how our lives become prophetic.  
Thomas Merton, The Springs of Contemplation 

Spirit of spring,
gleaming 
fields, marsh  
weeping.
Oh, trust the rain!
With sacred grief, 
it will lead you
to prophecy:
bird-song in
the foothills;
heavy grapes;
the tall
summer
grain.
