A sea of possibilities,
a vision coalescing,
disparate desires solidifying,
image of a harmony emerging,
which, if achieved,
would hold the promise
of unfathomable bliss
that when you taste
will fill your heart with longing
till your mission is
to make it come to pass
But all the while the subtle sea is shifting
and you can see it’s not in you
to engineer a change —
Just in that moment, you saw
how your thought was drifting
from the perfect vision to the things
you’d need to rearrange . . .
A sea of possibilities:
Close your eyes and rest
and let your vision reemerge
in the sea of yes.
