The empty vessel

The empty vessel

To grasp a moment
ephemeral as the wind

To hold it as a measured gift
to mold it from its nothingness
to touch it from its breathingness

A meeting ground
encounters a fragment
which makes it whole

Complexities unfold to a centered core
makes a space for stillness
chambers unlock
like leaves of lotus
beneath the surface of endless shores

Archetypes come alive
and sing the song of dreams
saturated in colors
is music of the soul
