High Praise

I am afraid of you
Because
you are so perfect
Self assured and self sufficient

You can heal your mind
Scan your brain
And reverse DNA damage
And purify blood

You can call spirits
And the good ones
And the terrible ones
All come running with delight

You can make friends
And end wars
And sooth the children
So the birds will sing

You have great taste
And skill to match
In people, play, love,
You commune body to body,

Your name evokes peace
You presence charges the air
You are as fierce
As you are kind

You cultivate forests
Of medicine plants and fruit gardens
You feel the earth
And breath the sky

Your eyes see all
Far and wide and
From the stars to the deep down under
In all dimensions of time

You are more than I can hold
You are made to be shared
In ways more than one
With everyone who dares

You are seen
You are heard
You are felt
You are loved

You are cared for.
