What is the sound of
the jewel in the heart
which we call Oneness?
How to describe the
soundless song
resonating through every cell
in the universe?
Can you feel it, sense it, know it?
The jewel sounds through silence
sounds through
the growing flowers
the blowing wind
the glowing sun
in every smile.
Listen, listen
the sound of the jewel
the sound of love
resonating
in the heart of everything I say.
Listen, listen
with the ears of the heart.
The sound of the jewel is Oneness.

Eternal presence
beyond past and future
beyond the pinprick present
beyond time and space
beyond comprehension and ignorance
beyond desire and preference
always within
the open secret
of the heartspace.

Being breathed
being visited by thoughts
choosing not to take them on
being free.
Being breathed
knowing the flow of life-force
easing through this body
unstoppable.
Being breathed.

One by one
the leaves let go
from the trees
dancing gracefully
to land on river and earth
creating a soft, golden bed
to walk upon.
One by one
the raindrops drum their rhythm
on my hood and
on the already swollen river
creating a peaceful pattern
with which to walk.
One by one
the leaves and raindrops
sing the song of impermanence
sing the song of beauty
sing the song of love.
