scars

tenderness

enveloping old scars

in soft light

not to push them open

but only

to remind about their presence

reminding that

repetition is not always a sin

but sometimes only a tender expression of

not yet entirely assimilated

wisdom

timely

there is indeed

joy to be found

in every task

done

in its proper time

thunder

heavy rain

and thunder

tearing a part

the sky

opening into realities

that had so far been covered

by education

allowing what was taught to be wrong

to become

cloudburst

the sky falling open

into cloudburst

pouring the maximum of water

in the minimum of time

washing away human efforts

as were they worthless

useless

superficial

compared to a deeper balance

of life

procrastination

the resonance of a word

can sometimes evoke

a feeling

opposite

to its meaning

procrastination can sometimes be

an awaiting of

the proper moment

for action to be

senses

looking out

into the world

through clean windows

can be

revealing

the smell of blossoming irises

enrapturing

the sound of early birds

enchanting

the touch of soft skin

liberating

the taste of life itself

delivering

discretion

another discreet sunrise

another week

another day

how essential discretion can be

on powerful days

not to be confused

with holding back the light we are given

a discrete sunrise

is still a sunrise

just as the sun is still there

behind the clouds

lightness

light all over

golden morning light

red evening light

glorious inner light

filling bones and hearts

with lightness

no

a closed no

can be

a heart breaking experience

where a changed attitude

can open

a closed heart

anchoring

closing circles

walking rounds

inhabiting another territory

of the soul
