I see you out there in the forest

Wandering, hopeful, releasing what was

I see you struggling in the streets

Afraid, lashing out at a passerby

I see you sitting alone

In a crowded room

I see you shining brightly

Day in day out brightening darkened way

I see you transcending, transmuting

What was, no longer serving this moment

I see Heart as big as Sun

Shadow present as moon governing night

I see you

I see me.

~Ani Po

Take my hand

Says the wind

Whispers of paradise

Fills my soul

Into the past

Aware

Painful and destructive

Observing thought

Non-attachment

Acknowledging

Gratitude for all before

Breathe

Take my hand

Says my soul

Walking soulfully

Winds and Chimes

Singing a joyous tune

Into the unknown

Future as it may be

Uncertainty

Anticipation

Non-attachment

Gratitude for all that may be

Take my hand

Walk with me

Present and aware

That was and may be

Ever-changing

Never fleeing

Walk with me

Where thine heart may go

We are here

We are there

We are right where we need to be

Walk with me.

~Ani Po
