Hold Or Let Go

deep into ponderance,
not to be confused by predicaments,
pleading and plodding to bring pleasing
where once there was teasing,
the composure overshadows the effort,
so the struggle looks like ease,
onward and onward,
sometimes upward always outward,
ego shrinking the more I grow,
learning and teaching,
wisdom constantly seeking,
fully knowing there is more to know,
chop wood, carry water,
drink wisdom, share hope.
be love.
