soft summer rain

washing away the dust

bringing to the surface

unexpected wells

of sadness

silently surrendering

to founts of joy

overcoming

the insurmountable unease

of a flickering mind

no matter how

banal

it can appear

is a just as subtle

as profound

healing

when a call for inner silence

is up against

expectations beyond the possible

the subtle balance

where harmony can reign

is to be carefully

obeyed

drifting solitude

disguised

in consumption

while all there was ever needed

is love

quietude

opening

inward

crossing the bridge

for the material

to merge with

the spiritual

is as natural

as it can appear to be

impracticable

when a strengthless body

sore of fatigue

and a brightness of lightness

in the spirit

are simultaneously present

there is a bridge

to be found

and crossed

for the material

to merge

with the spiritual

and the spiritual

to merge

with the material

accepting our limitations

is opening towards

the realm

where everything

can happen

praise is

a description of

what is

rather than

an intention of

how we would like things

to be

when we become able to

describe

what is

rather than

how we would like things

to be

beauty emerges

inevitably

trying to behave

chaotically

when one is

systematic

in order to please

a chaotic mind

is going against nature

and going against nature

is going against life
