stability in oscillations
by adaption and flexibility
relinquishing mental resistance
as a flowing orientation 
steadies the flame

we are the sunset
dying without any regret
as also beauteous glory of dawn
playing all life roles assigned
in vibrant nonchalance

Fat Jack Falstaff

That he is old more the pity
His white hairs do witness it

If food, wine and beer be a fault
Then God help the wicked

But for a sweet Jack Falstaff
Kind Jack Falstaff
True Jack Falstaff
Valiant Jack Falstaff 
Therefore more valiant
Being as he is old Jack Falstaff

Banish not him from your friendship
Banish plump Jack
Then banish all the world

My apologises to Shakespeare ! 
An adaption from Henry IV
