Sabbath Work

 

This is the work

of the Sabbath.

All creatures flowering

out of themselves, a rose,  

star pollen galaxy,

blue-green egg

in a well woven nest,

the little earth

in its swirl of distances.

This the work 

of the effortless.

A prophet does not see

into the future.

A prophet sees

deeply

into the present moment.
