EVERY GARDEN A HEALING GARDEN
(For the Kirkwood Hospice Garden)
‘Tis strange how we can often take them so much for granted
each Garden Of Mother Nature by our Creator planted,
as the gardens that once as a gardener might tend,
absorbed in its rainbow cycles from year’s beginning to end,
the radiant beauty of each and every single and simple flower
as delights us throughout our lives’ myriad hours,
pervading us with so much Peace when we them contemplate
and the many miracles of life, long to meditate,
be it a rose or a daisy, ‘domesticated’ or ‘wild’,
with all the innocence of an enraptured child!
What poem can describe each perfect and miraculous form,
each an image of our souls, from which our most healing thoughts blossom?

PLEASE PRAY FOR AND HELP
THE ‘DANCING’ BEARS.
VICTOR WATKINS, Wildlife LiBEARty Director of WSPA, which works worldwide to promote animal welfare, makes an appeal:
“As the tambourine rattles & music blares out on an Indian street, a small bear cub is wrenched to his feet by a course rope fastened to his delicate nose. Stolen by poachers who killed his mother he learns by pain to ‘dance’. His eyes show his deep pain. Can we really stand back & do nothing? Can we accept this cruelty as entertainment?
Only 13 years ago this was happening in Greece & Turkey - in tourist areas, but no more, the people’s eyes were opened to the appalling reality of bear dancing. Now we want to bring this cruel practice to an end in India & Pakistan.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT WE CAN DO IT – WITH HELP”

“THIS UNHOLY WAR”
This unholy war, abuse, & conflict between the human species & other life forms upon the Earth, is mainly brought into manifestation through the selfishness of humanity!
It is not the nature of the brute beast to kill, abuse, torture & maim other life forms. Nature, with all her mysteries, follows a very delicate momentum - & follows strictly the Divine Universal Laws.
ALL HUMANITY NEEDS IS TO FOLLOW THE HEART, & TO TREAT LIFE, IN ALL FORMS & MANIFESTATIONS, AS SACRED! Inspiration by MANDEL
