Everything’s for your taking
Right at your tips, fingers stretch, reach out
Everything’s yours & you alone can know of it
Sunlight on both sides,
Wind blowing by, heat remaining
The body heals, with sweat & dust
Leaves are more than pretty, they speak
Feet take you the right way,
When the gut comes out to play
The mind & heart are in rhythm, a language understandable
Rest of life is still a mystery
Pain seems illusive, that throws joy in there too
Heartache & memories, you choose to let loose
High times & bests mean nothing if you’re on a quest
Just the breathing that seems true
Everything, everybody will move
Even you will be renewed — wait for it
This life is not for taking or keeping
It is for comprehending, experiencing & living
I live on now in a wider realm,
one with more of ether & spirit, the planet booming with it
Less of what this worlds materialistic offerings,
I no longer choose to live a herd life,
Maybe this is the root of the Zhen life.
