CONSTANTLY IN THE UNFOLD

(C) 2009 Howard McQueen


This tendency
to run directly into
believing our stories,
as well as the stories of others.

The drama
the suffering
the distress
unrest
the need to take action,
to make things right

Or, do we have it ALL upside down,
held together, lacking a "do over", a turn around?

Strong arms unfold
and we behold
an other-worldly
peace and stillness in beauty,
in the constantly unfolding
and allowing of things
to run their own course,
letting life just be ...
