“O most honored Greening Force,
You who roots in the Sun;
You who lights up, in shining serenity, within a wheel
that earthly excellence fails to comprehend.
You are enfolded
in the weaving of divine mysteries.
You redden like the dawn
and You burn: flame of the Sun.”
– Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179), Viriditas
Beautiful poem. I love the writings of Hildegard von Bingen, one of the Rhineland mystics in the church who writes from nature and her soul.
