Expanding into Spring

The sun was shining, but the air was still brisk. The Spring Program was beginning again for 2018 at Sunflower Farm and the children were awake and full of movement. We gathered together and sat on wooden stumps, in circular formation, to ground ourselves and become attuned to the space we were to be a piece of for the coming months. We played games and introduced ourselves before setting out on a tour of the farm. The morning was full of welcome and solitude in coming to a new place of growth.
freedom
of expression
to take up space
to imagine
and to exist within those bounds
allowance
of distance
to move without limits
to understand that which surrounds us
without being destructive and
possessive of the exploration
upon which we endure
and set out on
respect
of the individuality
we each distinctly garner
to create
and be within the world
moving together
