Poetry & prayers

  

The highest good is like water.
Water gives life to the ten thousand things

 And does not strive.
It flows in places men reject

And so is like the Tao.

In dwelling, be close to the land.
In meditation, go deep in the heart.
In dealing with others, be gentle and kind.
In speech, be true.
In ruling, be just.
In business, be competent.
In action, watch the timing.

Fluent

 

I would love to live

Like a river flows,

Carried by the surprise

Of its own unfolding.
