What is love? you say

dressing up the day
with thrills and mounds of clay
decoration be your thought -
you make today as you were taught
it is what it is
and see clearly why
true abandonment
opens up the sky
the light pours in
as it always does
but in your eyes
it is just the sun

it warms your heart
and you let it in
then love is free
for every kin
to every tree,
flower, bug and bird
this experience is new
one you've never heard

you awaken from the death

from the deep and dark world
and fly with the wind
seeing beauty, the pearl

when you didn't find Life
to be so sweet
you were looking
down at your feet
but the Truth really is
right in front of your nose
the world is everything
right down to your toes.
