Summer Greetings

God of eye and ear,

of taste and touch,

of smell and of every sense

and source of knowing,

bless me not

with sight alone

but bless me also

with ears to hear

your voice

and tongue to taste

your essence

and nose to breathe

your fragrance

and fingertips to touch

your nearness

and heart to open

that door

which is wisdom,

which is wonder,

which is all.
