Boundlessly flows the river, just as it flows

"Boundlessly flows the river, just as it flows.
  Red blooms the flower, just as it blooms.
  Distant mountains without limit.
  Green upon green.

There is a true-ness and a thus-ness
to the flowers blooming and the river flowing.
There is life in its vast contours.
There is you and me along this path.

There is a world.
There is a world in need of support,
of love, of holding, of honouring.
There is a world deserving of honour and love
and care for each and every sentient life.

There is the river flowing with care
and the mountains vast with honour.

There is love and respect,
for each and everyone of our lives,
- for my life and yours."

This is a Zen Saying
And this is the Zen Bell in my garden.
