Thanks for that walk down memory lane, Harrison, with QC, Learning Orgs etc. It made me think of this poem I wrote after summer watching mother/father nature do life - enjoy.
*Ok, Community, How? * OK - how do I do it? Be in community? Create community? Do Community? Live as community? All life does it so effortlessly – just “be”ing, flying from flower to flower Local, not global, yet global it is Bee says to wasp, I’d like to sit on this flower with you. Wasp moves over or flies away. Flower just reaches for the sun, for water at night, expression – fragrance, color Effective acts all, useful, creative, bountiful Birds come to feeder one at a time They line up in the tree and flit around til it’s their turn Squirrels come first, then the birds. No squirrels, no birds Squirrels spill seed on ground, Chipmunks eat up the waste Doves show up to finish what’s left And here come the turkeys – get those bugs, eat those tics In the spring Lots of babies of everything Enough to feed raptors and fox And here I am a human bug, witnessing, enjoying Mosquitoes do what exactly? Drink my blood? And why is that? What usefulness does that employ? No need to know how. Just dance the dance Smell the roses, drink the wine, taste the chocolate Savor – being alive Here in my community of life I think there’s meaning here – Being me – sensing the dance, not pushing, or forcing.
