  • Threshold

    Threshold

    This quiet awareness
    of change unfolding
    beyond our control—
    like waves reshaping the shore
    while we sit in stillness,
    watching the tide.

    It is neither resignation
    nor resistance,
    but a kind of graceful surrender
    to what is.

    And yet, here we are—
    anchored in this space,
    this conversation,
    still able to choose
    how we meet whatever comes.

    Perhaps this is what’s alive:
    a pause,
    a breath,
    a peering behind the curtain.

    The in-between moment,
    the hush before becoming,
    when the silence is not empty—
    but full of what waits
    to be born.

  • Poem: The Lightness of Letting Go

    We chase the air and call it solid ground,
    A path to walk, yet never to be found.
    Enlightenment, it dances in the breeze,
    A dream we seek, but slips with gentle ease.

    Like floaters in the eye, it drifts away,
    Each time we think we’ve found it for a day.
    And angels laugh, for they can take to flight,
    By knowing not to hold their burden tight.

    The mind’s a joke, it tries to make its stand,
    While life just moves the pieces out of hand.
    So let us fly and let the effort go,
    For lightness is the only truth to know.

    🙏🕊️🙏

  • Haiku: Happiness

    Gentle stream, leaves drift,

    Embrace impermanence’s gift,

    Let go, happiness.
