To a Wild Rose
-by Spirit Howler-
Now playing: To a
Wild Rose
By Edward MacDowell
My body longs for you like a dry weary wasteland
without water
-King David
Sleep
my Wild Rose,
Sleep.
I
am Spirit Howler
Who
watches over you as you sleep,
Who
comforts you in your suffering,
Who
keeps you safe and warm through the darkest hour of the night.
Sleep,
my Wild Rose,
Sleep.
You
are safe tonight.
Sleep.

You are the Wind that sighs in
the trees; you refresh my soul,
You are the Earth, which
upholds my every step,
You are the Fire, that burns
deep within my breast,
You are the Water, without
which I would wither and fade.
You are the Owl, that soars
high above, watching over me,
You are Mother Nature,
providing all I need to live,
You are the Wild Rose, kissed
by the morning dew,
You are the Air, I have
breathed you in and drowned in all that is you.
Oh the joy of that passing!
When I gave myself over to
your love!
Never has my soul known such
peace, such bliss!
I am yours, My Wild Rose,
until the end of time!

When in disgrace
with fortune and men's eyes
I alone beweep my
outcast state,
And trouble deaf
heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon
myself, and curse my fate;
Wishing me like to
one more rich in hope,
Featured like him,
like him with friends possest,
Desiring this man's
art, and that man's scope,
With what I most
enjoy contented least;
Yet in these
thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on
Thee - and then my state,
Like to the lark at
break of day arising
From sullen earth,
sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love
remembre'd, such wealth brings
That then I scorn to
change my state with kings.
- by William Shakespeare -
Who are You, my darling?
Who are You who has taken
My suffering as Your
suffering?
My Happiness as Your
Happiness?
My Life and death as Your
Life and death?
My love,
Why aren't you
a Dewdrop
a Butterfly
a Bird?
Ask this with your whole being.
From The
Heart of the Buddha's Teaching
