Wildflower Eulogy, guest post by Mark Saline

Mark’s word about this … We become what we focus on all day.

Jesus:
Consider wild flowers of the field

Wendell Berry
knows where wild flowers bloom

William Blake
sees heaven in the wild flowers

Pete Seeger:
Where have all the flowers gone?

Everywhere,
they’ve gone to girls and graves

God plants wild flowers in our love and grief

I dream of a quiet man who… knows where the rarest wildflowers are blooming  

                                                                                                        Wendell Berry

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower 
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand 
 And Eternity in an hour        – 

William Blake, Auguries of Innocence
