no words

like a seed now this light 

it is quiet within 

and will open with the right care
and heart tending love 

it will unfold as the flower 

or the sun that rises slow and steady

or settle as the sea that is calm

and dissolve as water in milk

and the river into the ocean

it will make itself known

as the opening of the door 

with light that filters thru

and the clouds parting 

and the winter suddenly changes 

and warm sun shines about 

suddenly 

spontaneous 

grace flowing here ..

now friend 

this is the time of joy

for the one that can enter into it 

without putting on it a story of *me* 

will be in this way of seeing clearly

not set apart in the land of shadow

like those that talk a lot without

any true experience behind it

these ones are not present really

but entranced by words that flow

out of the mouth

yet this has nothing to do with peace

for true silence is unutterable and has 

no words  at all
