  • The Paradox of Life

    The Paradox of Life

    The paradox of life
    Is that to quench our curiosity,
    We must give
    Of that which
    We do not possess.

    We witness
    What we conjure in thought.
    We analyze,
    In the quest to understand.

    And then,
    That which we summoned,
    Appears.

    What we need
    And what we desire,
    Fade into irrelevance.

    Words paint the void
    Truth echoes
    Near and far

    For it is what we speak of
    That comes to be.

  • Dancing With the Universe

    Dancing With the Universe

    Life waits for us,
    A starry-clad wild dancer-
    Shall we refuse this call,
    Or shall we take its hold?
    Do we want to be
    A complaining gray mouse,
    Or would it make sense
    To join in on the heavenly dance
    Of floor,
    That is not resplendent like other stars?

    Those who dare tango with existence,
    Find themselves swept away
    Into a grand love affair,
    Where trust blossoms
    Like a supernova,
    That destroys all illusions of being,
    Separate entities from each other.

    Because every breath
    we breathe out,
    Is a message of love.
    While every single occasion
    Remembered
    Not in order only,
    But rather forever.

    On the mountains of today,
    Lie the possibilities
    Of tomorrow.
    For who knows where
    They may send us
    Into some unexplored part of being?
    As life who loves us passionately,
    Whirls us in and out of galaxies
    That are made up of holy moments,
    We are shown fresh constellations
    Of wonder in each revolution.

    Instead,
    This means to dance
    With the universe
    Is an acceptance of its music,
    Even if sometimes
    It becomes disharmonious
    To our ears.
    It means getting rid
    Of heavy armor
    Against all that we would.
    Instead,
    Embark into espousing
    Light gowns that
    Is acceptance.

    Within this cosmic ballet,
    We are student and creator,
    Learning steps undreamed before,
    Now interweaving patterns
    More delicate than we had imagined.

    And so,
    As the sun spins around through space,
    Take another spin around that star.
    Realize how much it is
    That we share with this life,
    For once there would be
    Nothing else
    But its pure essence
    When at last –
    Without any thought or effort at all –
    We become what we have
    Always been in our hearts:
    Simply dancing.

  • Breath Exchange

    Breath Exchange

    We breathe in
    From nose up
    To our mind,
    And we exhale down,
    An offering from mouth
    To earth’s trees.

    A very simple
    beautiful cycle.
    Delicate and vital.
    One couldn’t exist,
    If the other falls.

    Earth provides the atmosphere,
    We replenish it,
    The balance is clear.
    This Earth, a home,
    Not ours to drain,
    To plunder for profit,
    For wealth and greed.
    The chasm between
    The rich and the poor.

    Though all share
    The same air to produce.
    One atmosphere,
    Enveloping all.
    A borrowed breath,
    A life returned,
    In this resonant rhythm,
    We are bound,
    A reciprocal breath,
    Sustains all life.
