Happy 2017!

Mother, Father, God, Universal Power 
Remind us daily of the sanctity of all life

Touch our hearts with the glorious one-ness of all creation,
As we strive to respect all the living beings on this planet.

Penetrate our souls with the beauty of this earth,
As we attune ourselves to the rhythm and flow of the seasons.

Awaken our minds with the knowledge to achieve a world in perfect harmony
And grant us the wisdom to realize that we can have heaven on earth.

~ Jo Poore
