THE  SEVEN  SACRAMENTS
OF CREATION 

What would you choose as
the 7 sacraments of creation?
 
There are many possibles:
water, fish, shells, shores,

lakes, rivers, waterfalls, 

dewfall or frost on the grass,
birds, trees, earth, plants,
bread, wine, apples, oranges,
tables, rocks, mountains,
rainbows, rain, snow, ice,

polar bears, lions, giraffes,
dogs, cats, wheels, bridges,
ladders, stairs, homes, sky,
the moon, the sun, and the
stars in the dark night and
there are so many more.
 
What would you choose as
the 7 sacraments of creation?
 
Today, these would be my seven:
water, wind, rock,  plants, sky,
a baby, and an old person just
sitting there waiting at the first
floor elevator in a nursing home.

Tomorrow, it might be others.

I'll let you know as I look around.
