☀️ The Daily Boost #820

If you open up to the beauty

The Daily Boost (published weekdays) is one of the newsletters of The Raft, the online community of author Phyllis Cole-Dai. We Rafters ride the river of life buoyed by music, poetry, and other arts, along with open spiritual practice. Most everything here is free, but patrons (paid subscribers) get some special perks because Phyllis is extra grateful for their support. Sign up here:

ALL LOVE
Babik Reinhardt & Cyrille Aimée

All the skies you’ve lived, all the winds you’ve felt, and the grass you’ve stepped on
It’s all love
The birds flying high above you and the smell of rain
All the memories you’ll keep inside
It’s love, it’s all love, dear
It’s all and everywhere around you, and it grows, dear
And if you open up to the beauty, you will feel it inside like a heartbeat
You know all the smiles you give and the tears you shed, the hands you hold
It’s all love . . .

(My thanks to Cyrille Aimée, her partner in songwriting, and pianist Mathis Picard.)
