BALANCE OF FLOW

Unlocking the secrets held so close
So long awaiting the kindness
Somehow lost it all was
Buried so deep within
Forgetting how to feel so alive

Now embracing the essential
Excavating that which was lost
Somehow becoming fresh & new again
Finding a truer nature reborn
So vibrant after being nourished

Springing forth are the blossoms
After so much stillness
Anew they flourish
Attention paid to the one who gives so much
To so many the giving taking its toll

So bold now to pay attention
Now to the needs of self
Realizing the joy in receiving
Even as foreign as it is
Knowing this path is freeing

While continuing to give & share
Finding purpose in the exchange
Exploring so much more than ideas
Enveloped within a caring look
Resting inside the balance of flow
Embracing how it is shown
