emptying our thoughts
following the Way … we near –
the Unknowable
surrendering all … to find
awareness – beyond knowing

emptying our thoughts
following the Way … we near –
the Unknowable
surrendering all … to find
awareness – beyond knowing

our lives are too short
will any of this matters
in a million years
the only thing that remains
the Truth that is here and now
the tracks that we leave
tells a story of our deeds
and our companions

will we have loved our neighbors
in fulfillment of the Law

late summer deluge
the grasses turn green again
but not on fresh graves
the nature of love and death
known but not well accepted
rain falling in sheets
five lanes bumper to bumper
not for faint of heart
respecting each other’s paths
best way for all to get home
