Experience water
Keep to the earth
Experience desert
Keep to the lush
Experience the world
Keep to yourself
Find balance in your endeavors
Are you leaning too far to one side?
Is your world tipping over?
Should you value the same
Value as those around you?
Find the circle in your life
To be well-rounded
Let your passions speak to you
Be the pen in a box of pencils
If you so wish
Find ground you wish to stand on
On both sides of the river
See the other side
See across the ocean
But keep to the land
Find balance in the life you want to live
I like the beginning and how they contradict each other.
ReplyDeleteI like the connections back to the Tao poetry we read; I also really like the phrase of "find the ground you wish to stand on on both sides of the river."
ReplyDeleteI like how you emphasize the idea of balance.
