Day rising
Sun wakens
Sky gets busy
Painting clouds
Northerly winds
Defer to gentle
Southern breezes
Dew hastens away
Grass becomes sprightly
Little birds learn their songs
Are you awake? Are you aware?
Can you hear?
Tag: life
Present
Words lose their meaning
Thoughts become intentions
Mind merges with heart
Silence is prayer
Each second a lifetime
Empty and full
Breath and spirit
Are the same
On the trees
On the mountains
On the seas
They are the same
A world lives and dies
On the breath of the wind
The spirit moves in all
Everything is one
Day of Wonder
Day of Wonder
It’s the day
of the rising
and the leaving
and the emptiness
with first
the disbelief
and the shock
and the fear
and the helplessness
then the wondering
about the how
and the what
and the what next
and the speculation
and the circling
round it
and round it
with the argument
and the discussion
and gradually
the waiting
and the silence
and the waiting,
and the wondering
and the waiting
and the nearly
despairing
until
the meeting.
