The Recipe

An illuminating aura 

Abundantly verdant  

Sprouts gifts and talents  

Blooms without burden 

United through passion 

In purpose we love 

Bodacious by nature 

Hymning drums from above 

Our pores gulp sunshine 

Living water streams from the soul

Providing every need  

So we won’t be poor no more
