The flower of wisdom

"Awakening occurs 

Not when there is no more

To be added

But instead,

When there is no more

To be taken away."

                     Wu Hsin

 

 

 

The flower of wisdom 

 

rooted in the soil of singing silence

 

already here                      timelessly clear

 

blooming in the freedom from the known

 

Its emptiness boundless as the night

 

revealing the purest light

 

Its fragrance of

 

uncaused joy

 

simply

 

is

 

is

 

is

A very shapely poem, and I especially cherish "rooted in the soil of singing silence"!
