Reflections
on a rainy day
Although being excited
and feeling good
one should remember the
many times
when after having had
those lightening views
the tough fall down from
high but puffy clouds
touching hard ground
with softness of one's nose.
Hurting bottom, broken
nose - dreams going on.
Flying high might give
some kind of over view
combined with staying
still on one's firm ground.
Carried away from longing,
strong needs
to fill up the missing
links within oneself.
Extended arms are reaching
out for more
no distance, no dimension
will be left out
completing the mosaic
of one's own being.
Not quite knowing what
to do or where to go
to find the final puzzle
to win the life long game.
Jumping out of joy or
falling into numb holes -
the moment comes to reflect
on all one's actions
getting tired, sitting
down, letting things pass by.
So getting out whatever
might want showing up -
but stepping back and
watching near the source.
Although still being excited
and feeling good
I want to remember the
many times of lessons
when dreams fading away
and reality takes over.
Clearing up one's position,
relating - responding
being hurt but facing
own's truth - being oneself.
