Wabi-Sabi
wabi-sabi stains, etched upon our soul
characterise struggles, that make us whole
vanishing ink cognised by inner eye
that with feet on ground, we reach for the sky
reuniting with source, our earth life goal
stepping lightly along the pathless path
each moment in time, a holy sabbath
we relinquish control through surrender
embracing life, like a child in wonder
fearing no longer, destiny spawned wrath
wheel of time displays, our footprints on sand
then, as now, we walk with God, hand in hand
