too soon the song ends
attuning to melody
pauses go unheard
too soon the song ends
attuning to melody
pauses go unheard
in the light of truth
every be-ing casts shadow
every temple cracks
abundant life begins
…
only
…
after accepting death
living water
streaming from deep within
cleaving through stone heart
“life is but a phase”
said the Sage before passing
yet his words remain
resonating like ripples
throughout eternity’s pond
