Tiny Precious Pearls
Debbie and I became adventurous in our tiny kitchen in Beijing. We supported the growth of Water Kefir – one of Mother Nature’s finest foods. The experience proved ridiculously funny at times. We became obsessed with the tiny bubbles. Days consisted of feeding the miraculous pearls. Observing their growth spurts. Being concerned that they may just outgrow the fridge …
So determined were we to combat the toxins we breathed in each day. The toxins that were Beijing’s air …
Dancing lightly through glorious liquid
Forming and growing in splendid motion
Ethereal
Simple and pure
Wafting through sun-touched grace
Prancing in heavenly halos
Golden rims of natural light
Life force in motion
Powerful elements captured in glass
On endless silent voyage
Creating uncontaminated natural energy
The wonder of life
Bubbling and frothing with excitement
Bouncing up and sinking down
Energizing cells
Awaken to health and vitality
Symbols of purity and wellness
In moments of unfolding truth
Amidst purifiers and toxic mists
Harmonious in essence
Satisfied in their glass home
They ask for little
Content to serve
To provide that which is needed
Glorious beads of rejuvenation
In silence an unnoticed process unfolds
Bearing endless life, zest and new beginnings
Serenity swathing all
Translucent grains enclosing
A multitude of hidden powers
Water Kefir
A wonder of ancient times
Plump, glistening gems fermenting
Quietly creating cultures
Securely encircling goodness
The sacred journey begins
Awaken now little wonders
New life reigns
Fizzy bubbles and exotic forms
Enhance the joy of dance
Celebrate the illusive cycle of life
As it comes and goes
Witness the wonder that is healing
My sincerest appreciation goes to my friend and artist, Ross Harris, for creating exactly what I was trying to portray through my words. You simply got it Ross. Thank you.
