Rosebud Abbananda

*

 

He who teaches
Birds to sing
And Bees to give
Protective stings
Secret waters
Forth to spring
And ivy to old
stone to cling
the Chessmaster
Pawn hearts to king
Fall forests fruit
To bear and bring
Daisies old rocks
To ring
He who teaches
All these things
Helps souls from
Bodies to take wing

(of my beloved cat
Rosebud Abbananda who
slipped from her body
and rose to God)
