Whirl

Jet Rood

My head is a blur
 thoughts twirling around
 like snowflakes in winter
 or in silence like the mist in fall
 strong like the storm in the dessert
 or as a hurricane raging round
 coming towards to me
 I try to duck and hide

 Then suddenly there is peace
 my mind at ease
 finding what was lost
 absorbing all inside
 lots of wisdom coming up
 knowledge from ancient times
 don't know where it's coming from
 but I just have to tell

 It is like a waterfall
 to long hidden inside
 now it's time to let it come
 to carry out the inside

Writing is a need like eating and sleeping. I think we are all wondrous creatures who deserve to love ourselves and live in freedom. I like to participate in cases which can make a difference for myself, my surroundings and the earth. My wish: humanity in a non-dualistic society. more…
