"Swaying is the Shadow"

"Swaying is the Shadow"

Rustling is the ripple of the river in the air,

and tree trunks are the riverbank that leads back to the atmosphere.

Swaying is the shadow of the wind in the forest,

and shadows are the swaying of the light through the leaves.

The forest is the acorn that hangs upon a branch,

and branches are the land on which the forest falls.

The ant hill is the land through which its tree roots run,

and water is the light into an ant absorbed.

The sun’s an ocean boiling ove’ onto an outcast island,

and light is the wave on the ocean of existence.

The universe of light and water, wind, and found on sound.

The universe an acorn hanging, a brown leaf on a tree.
