What do you believe?

Do you really know?

Do you care?

What you believe shapes your unconscious relationship to the world

It carves out the way in which you occupy the world

walking to and fro

sitting, up and down

reclining

as you do this

what does your mind do?

Time

and

humanity

are two tides

that

will meet

along with

the flow

of

the natural world

the world does not

evolve as the planet does

but

is reactive to

our

inner states and mood

where tides will meet

and swirl and wash

the

jetsam  and the flotsam

away

listen

listen

listen

to

the way the words

are formed

on your breath

in your mind

who is the speaker and the listener?

listen

to

the surge

beneath the noise pollution

of mind and world

The ability to understand

the gifts

of

Solitude

is

the very

step to knowing

humanity

in all its

 guises

what do you see

when you look

at the traces

of your life ?

what do you know

when see all that

you have learnt?

see the way of becoming

that dwells in the

wisdom of the

delight that

fills

your

being

and

then yoiu

will see

with

your deepest self

beyond eyes

beyond soul

holding

can be grasping

holding can be letting go

holding can be

caretaking

holding is a the start to giving

The broken bough

hangs

from the tree

the sunlight

calls the sap

to ooze

and fall to the ground

shadow builds the column

of sap

to touch the leaves

this tree sculpts its own body

from its essence

just like you and me

Wind

blows

because

that is its nature

water flows

because

that is its nature

what is your nature?

is it really the wind and water of the human species?

Can you appreciate the unseen

that dwells within

each detail

of your daily world?

can you appreciate

that which others

state is not

worth

appreciating

the ‘wisdom’ of the crowd

can sometimes be

the frenzy of the mob

can you

appreciate

the

unseen?
