Hopeful

Draped with greenery all over the living room

Emerald green ivy, crawling vine, blooming cactus flowers
Filtered sunlight bursting through the window curtains
As I am
Surrounded by alive plants
Walking around and looking them over, 
As I sit and meditate in the same room, I think of each plant,
As I talk to it and water it and pet it,
It greatly gladdens me because it makes me feel closer to Mother Earth
