In the continuum of being

Ronald Tirino

interdependence in a continuum of being
detached observation
Through the hearts of time

Between the outer and the inner
Between the space between
Single moon simple note
Reflected in each drop of rain
Casts its shadows
Off reflected pools
In the silence of our thoughts

Feel of living lives
Through raging winds
Become alive again
Everything familiar seen anew

Hesitance at its core
Silence in its stillness
Oblique to our existence
In the terrain of open hearts
Kaleidoscopic impressions
Assemble in consciousness of existence

    The depiction of interconnectedness and detached observation, the reflection of the moon in raindrops casting shadows in the silence of thoughts, and the feeling of living lives through raging winds all paint a vivid picture of existence and renewal in your verses. The imagery of familiar things seen anew, hesitance at the core, and kaleidoscopic impressions assembling in consciousness beautifully capture the essence of reflection, introspection, and the ever-changing nature of existence. The interplay between outer and inner realms, the space between, and the silence within stillness all contribute to a contemplative and thought-provoking exploration of our being and the interconnected world around us.
