Touch

“One touch of nature makes the whole world kin”

William Shakespeare


Wisdom

A wise old owl sat on an oak;
The more he saw the less he spoke;
The less he spoke the more he heard;
Why aren’t we like that wise old bird?

Childhood Found

         

Lost Childhood

small footprints mark the earth
laughter woven into the wind
spirit children play

tossing stones
leaping into the air
each foot landing in its rightful space

under the watchful trees
on the hidden path
in the haunted glen

 childhood found

Like Water

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”  — Bruce Lee
