I Am Reminded

Seams are sewn
by the dividing mind
Shrewd weaver –
knows how to trick us
knows how to scare away
our Stillness
our wild
our free

Sitting quietly today by
the creek with my duck,
squirrel, tree, dragonfly
friends
I am reminded that the
seamless sky is also the
sea is also every flutter of
every leaf is every stone –
also my voice my body
every tear of joy and grief
every ache and celebration

The mind whirrs, worries and
wants –
believes in time
believes in seams

Sitting quietly
Seamless Being

Questions for Contemplation

2. What helps you still your linear mind?
