On a Comment by Soulwright

October 22, 2006

SEED:
“I think I will sit at the creek a bit,
waiting,
listening for the whisper…”

A book of a thousand pages
could never outline a better plan
for enlightenment than this.

A moment set aside for contemplation;
an act of will more than planning …

To get off your feet off hurry-scurry
and be one with now and here …

All water touches the cycle of rebirth,
but a creek is closer to raindrops
than the distant sea …

patience and forbearance
are poorly taught in Western culture;
thus, waiting is a surrender of sorts …

One can embrace awe and wonder
by all the senses –
but never by speaking …

Yes, heed the whisper not the sign –
words writ more than 5000 years ago,
which can still guide the soul …

‘Nishish, nihush ne ziman’
……………………………………..

with thanks, faucon

  1. What a beautiful amplification of the whisper… the waiting is good… the water has gone from muddy to clear… leaving me sleepless…
