Gored by a Bull

An old friend, Lincoln Geiger was gored by a bull today. When I last had news, he was in surgery and holding his own. Lincoln is a biodynamic farmer who has a beautiful herd of cows. As we think of him, a member of his CSA sent a grace Lincoln wrote.  I think this 'grace' is filled with grace. Just wanted to share this with you all.

Thank you earth so soft and strong

Thank you meadow filled with
song

Thank you Mountain, forest and
stream
By you we rest and find our
dream

Thank you creatures wild and
tame
Your trust we love and hope to
gain
Thank you for your milk and
fleece
And for your meat that we may
eat

Thank you root and leaf and
seed
You hold the earth
You catch the rain
you fill the world with air again

Thank you wind for bringing
rain
Please help friends who are in
pain
For us who thirst and cry from
hunger
Please bring hope, life and
wonder

Thank you moon for guidance
and grace
For heart bent flowers
With dew drop lace

Thank you sun as day begins
For golden light
On angel wings

With thankful hearts
And open hands
We ask to share your loving
lands
