Here, Now and Beyond

like the waters
in oceans, rivers and streams;

like the earth upon
whose grounds seeds grow;

like the wind that gently leads
the autumn leaves to rest;

like the fire that bends iron
and steel to submission;

like the fragrance of fresh blossoms
that permeates the air

while the rain reveals
a rainbow;

Life is movement advancing
indifferent to place and time

transforming itself necessarily
as it struggles along its journey

making sense for itself
giving meaning to its being-

surpassing fear of death
as it lives

here, now and beyond
towards cystalline horizon

dying, living and life

alas! shedding its
material womb, life reaches
the light , its new home.
