Learn to Live Light

Learn to live light,

Do not hold anything tight,

Do not to anything cling,

If you do not want it your heart to wring,

Be a spirit that is free flowing,

If you want to be buoyant and glowing,

Be a butterfly that with ease from flower to flower flits,

See how lightly on every blossom it sits

And gathers into its fold the ambrosial honey,

And so makes the most of a day bright and sunny,

Tread ever so softly on the bounteous earth

That is your plentiful home and hearth,

When you go, leave behind footprints light,

That will be a going so gracious and right!

    1. Thanks a lot, Manjula Ma’m! Your generosity puts me in a spot and I just do not know how to respond to it except to bow down in all humility! You yourself are a blessed soul. I am very fortunate to be in your contact.
