PatienceA Poem by @dan@Listen in the silence to all that you know and will come to know. Each breath that you take is a breath that will precede the next, as each step that you take comes before the next step. For you cannot breath for the life that is to be tomorrow, as you cannot complete your journeys end, less you take one step before the next. When a tree is in the cycle of its life, it then knows when it is Time for it to bear its fruit. And when the fruits are ripe, They Are dropped from the limbs and in time the fruit will be gone and the new seeds are scattered to the soil. As you encounter the wonders of life, Be silent and listen for the time of lifes cycles. Then you will understand when it is time to interactAnd relate with the nature of what is before you. You must know that if you are impatient and harvest the fruit before its time, then you will have a fruit that is sour to taste. And the sweetness of your experience will have been wasted in the futility of your haste. When the fruit is harvested at the right time then you will become at one with, and a part of the natural offering that was meant to be Consumed. And its fragrance and richness will be your nourishment. And you will then know that in having patience, Your life will be in the eternal rhythm of all living things. © 2008 @dan@ |
