What if the great silence we tend is a living presence?
What if I wrapped my whirring thoughts, my fears, my strategies and my aches
In the atmosphere of this living presence
And rested
And rested
And rested
And opened
And listened
To a pulsing greater will
saying, “now this, now this, now this?"
Thus would the wise wielding of truth find the fulcrums of change,
Thus would the well waters spill love and mercy into the human heart,
Thus would our home planet and all beings be cherished,
Thus would our living presence say, "Holy, holy."
