Get ready to go,

Leave your regrets at the door,

Ripples, cascading...

 

 

Ripples, cascading...

Like a tug of war with wills,

Strong rope, a soft touch.

Ripples, cascading...

Like a tug of war with wills,

Strong rope, a soft touch.

 

Strong rope, a soft touch,

Your life is a tethered kite,

The breeze shows the Way

Your life is a tethered kite,

The breeze shows the Way

 

 

The breeze shows the Way,

Light of flickering candle,

Awareness ahead.

With eyes wide open,

Only see you want to see.

Better with eyes closed.

 

 

Better with eyes closed,

A perfect world ...all Within,

Wake up! time to go.

Wake up! time to go.

Again, the dream is over,

Come! Reality.

 

Come! Reality.

Undiscovered and secret,

Ripples lap the shore.

All One Symphony,

The birds, crickets and the winds,

The sounds of Nature,

 

the sounds of nature

a gurgling belly, a sigh

a fly buzzing by

Looking at me with those eyes,

Darkness covers all but those

Blind to screaming tears,

Hidden doorways, passages,

Our own becoming.

Salmon on the grill.

Better than the Mafia

Swimmingly up stream.

Swimming up stream,

The folly of using force,

Do without Doing.

Do without doing

Untangle without tying

Oh, how the knots grow

 

Oh, how the knots grow,

Gnarled tree with roots in earth,

Limbs stab into sky.

Where has my youth gone?
