The meaning of myself
is ease, silence and joy.
This triad dance together
rebuffing any desire
to work things out,
be in control or
find the answer.
There is no seeking,
no wanting,
no knowing,
only waiting,
watching,
being.
Ease, silence and joy weave together,
gently untying the knots of the heart,
gently reminding the mind
doubt, fear and hate do not belong here
they are imposters.
The dance of ease, silence and joy
is weaving a spell to reveal
the miracles of life,
unfurling a magic carpet
on which delight, marvel and wonder
ride resplendent.
The dance of ease, silence and joy
is finding the answer
in the meaning of myself.
